File find auto-* inconsistency

[dandv 0]

If you Alt+F7 for 'temp', NDN will automatically search for 'temp*'. This is fine. However, NDN also has a feature for searching for more than one file mask: the masks must be separated by a semicolon.

 

But, if you search for 'something;temp', NDN won't add a '*' to either 'something' or 'temp'. To be consistent, NDN should process each of the filemasks and search for 'something*;temp*'.

 

 

Hope this helps,

hi dan!!!

 

on one hand you are right

 

BUT, i think adding the * is a solution for a quick file search if you just want to add a few characters and then shoot

 

if you have the time to write 'something; somethingelse'

it should be no problem to add a *, dont you think? :)

 

to make it short, i would rather remove the auto '*' thing than creating code that would parse the line and add * to every section

 

i am no friend of code that tries to tell the user what to do

 

i hope this sounds logical :)
