  • [Help] show the full number of search occurrences instead of >99
    2 projects | /r/neovim | 18 Aug 2022
    I used to work through a lot of checklists in Markdown files, and I’d search for the empty checkboxes to see how many I had left. But there were always at least 300-ish in a file, so I went searching for a way to see the actual number instead of >99 results. vim-indexed-search is the best option I’ve found.

    As google/vim-searchindex told in Installation Note. Just set shortmess-=S in your init.vim with Neovim 0.4.0 or newer, could provide a minimal replacement of henrik/vim-indexed-search
