Thanks

Thanks for trying out this plugin, any feedback/contrubution would be much appreciated as this is my first take on writing plugins for Neovim. Additionally, I would like to express my cincere gratitude to Per-Åke Bligård and David Johansson for introducing me to the wonderful world of unorthodox file managers 🍻

bolt.nvim's Issues

Split preview for search results

When the search results are presented there shall be the possibility to make a split and preview each hit when moving the selection up & down.

Writing '+' in the input form causes an error.

Something goes south when accidentally entering '+' or presumably other regex characters, this might be because of how strings are managed on the python side. Could there be some way to escapte these characters before filtering?

Backspace does not move to parent folder after erasing filter text

1. Write any filter text
2. Erase it using backspace
3. Now backspace does not move to parent folder

Down button not working in :Tcd

To reproduce

1. nvim
2. :Tcd
3. Press key Down

Can I substitute this for netrw when opening a directory from terminal?

Not really an issue, but I was curious if there is a way to open this when I do something along the lines of nvim . in a project directory and have bolt open by default?

btw fantastic plugin. I've been using it quite a bit lately.

Make it possible to copy/mv/etc. between two panes.

These features are requested in order to have any use of the dual pane mode. Currently the commands, BoltCopy etc. only supports the dest as argument. One idea is to create additional commands e.g. BoltCopyDual to automatically get the dest from the neighboring pane.
