[idea] Let FARR score plugin results
« on: January 20, 2009, 04:48 AM »
Would it be possible to have FARR score the results from plugins? For example: query Everything using the Everything for FARR plugin, then let FARR reorder the result list by scoring the results so that the best results float to the top.

Better integration, better results, the power of FARR and everything combined - I am captain launcher lol

FARR is actually quite happy to score results returned from a plugin, either entirely, or by adding its own score to a score assigned by plugin -- just a matter of how the result is returned by the plugin to farr.

I'm actually working on a plugin at the moment and that's what I do: Use the general plugin score + or - for plugin returned items.
