Hyper: Feature request: ctrl-f Find in Scrollback

[cjb]

Ideally with incremental search and fancy highlighting and all that jazz.

Thanks for writing hyperterm! <3

I wonder if this can be done from a plugin somehow. One solution is to use tmux, but I've moved away from it...

I tried to work around this by selecting all text using Command+A and pasting it to a text editor to search, but Command+A doesn't seem to select text in scrollback.

Agree, this is a much needed feature. Very helpful when looking through diffs, and would bring Hyperterm closer to feature parity with Terminal.

I am not able to get even the regular "Find" to work. Nothing happens with "Cmd + F".

Any update on this?

[dimitrieh]

Would love to have this, one of the most used features in iterm2

[bobber205]

Not having this makes this almost unusable for me.

[aleclarson]

This is the only reason I don't use hyper over the macOS terminal.

Any chance there will be work done on this soon? 😀

If this is done, bye bye iTerm. But for now, I'm gonna stick with iTerm.

[ephetic]

Gonna jump on the bandwagon here. I tried hyper right after it came out, but switched back to iTerm after a couple weeks because of the lack of scrollback search. Just tried it again for a week and I still can't live without it. I could learn tmux, but then I probably could live without iTerm too.

Also in the boat of "really want to use Hyper, but literally cannot use a terminal without Ctrl+F"

I've raised a PR https://github.com/zeit/hyper/pull/1793 to add a very basic incremental search feature. Would appreciate reviews :)

i just published this plugin, it implements basic text search controls (input, buttons, menu
and shortcuts). Hope it helps u all:

@chibicode - Command+A seems to select text in the scrollback for me - using 2.0.0 - for those needing a workaround

Any idea as to when this will get added to the stable build? Still not seeing this feature on v3.0.2 (macOS).

[Stanzilla]

This is now implemented in the canary CI builds, I don't do release so no idea when that will be stable.
