[Suggestion] Secondary mode with execute on first unique match

<< < (6/7) > >>

mouser:
Absolutely, i will add the option asap.

mouser:
so i added an option for "any chance something along the lines of that force matching the first letter(s) might sneak in there?"
but the outcome seems less than usable -- files you expect to be found are not found.
for example if you search for "firefox" it won't find "Mozilla Firefox".

perhaps what would be better is if the option rejected when the first search letter(s) dont match the lefthand side of ANY word in the filename?

FARR already gives a strong bonus to such situations -- it's one of the ways it tries to do a good job of ranking results -- but i could add an option to reject violations..

mouser:
Yes, that's much better. I'll put up a beta on friday for testing.

mouser:
Try the new beta:

* or https://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/findrun/downloads/beta/FindAndRunRobotSetup.exe
You'll find a new option in the Search Behavior tab:

mouser:
You could disable non-contiguous matching above that too, if you want to further weed out spurious matches.

Remember, non-contiguous matching is what allows "msw" to match "MicroSoft Word", and so it naturally matches lots of stuff.
