[bug report] historys does not work anymore

[nitrix-ud]

when you type historys, you see your past searches
but when you select one, it just closes FARR (instead of putting the past search inside the search box)

since i use historys (through a simple alias), noresults, and google search around 50 times a day, this release have been completely unusable for me at this point.
i really really hope those bugs are gonna be fixed asap

[lanux128]

how do you select the history items via alias, could you show an example? i type mine all the time.

[nitrix-ud]

regex : ^h$
result : dosearch historys

unfortunately this does not work since new release
historys is broken

[mouser]

fixed; will be in next release today.

[nitrix-ud]

great

@nitrix-ud: i'd pay to watch a screencast of you working on your PC with Farr. maybe you're the right candidate to write a definitive guide on Farr's regex usage.

It would really be great if nitrix (and others) would make some short screencasts demonstrating different ways they use FARR.

Jing is free: http://www.jingproject.com/

There are others too.

Because it is your moral duty to help those less fortunate than yourself, for whom I have elected myself to speak,
who are bears of very little brain.

Please don't Pooh-pooh the idea!
