Strange sorting behaviour about tmux-fuzzback

[roosta]

I think it was because the --no-sort option was set, I don't think I thought that option through, because we want to sort when entering a query. Can you try the branch fix/results-sorting and confirm that it works how you expect?

I tried it and compared using fuzzback with piping the output directly into fzf and I can confirm that now they do the same thing. Now i only have to type 2 letters to find nodejs in the list while before it was something like 50th in the list typing out node as search term. In my view It definitely improved the efficiency of searching! 😀

I experimented a little more with it and what I found is that I would expect fuzzback to list the matches from the current end of the scrollback towards the older outputs. Now it lists the matches from the older ones towards the newer.

It lists it in the order that the scrollback lists it, I'm not sure I understand what you mean. When I use date a few times, then use fuzzback, it lists things in this order:

which is the order I'd expect since that's the order the scrollback lists it.

Anyways, I merged the --no-sort removal, good catch.

There is the option set -g @fuzzback-finder-layout 'reverse', maybe that will work? otherwise there might be conflicting settings from somewhere else.

Sorry, my bad, you are right I did not test it thoroughly and in that case it looked like it just does that, going from earlier output to more recent ones. It was one long day for me. 😉

No worries :) I'm closing this since the initial issue has been resolved.
