These search tools list results in the minibuffer, but the matches are not highlighting:
- SPC s a f (ag)
- SPC s g f (grep)
- SPC s k f (ack)
- SPC s t f (pt)
Help describe does highlight matches. Would be nice if ag/grep/ack/pt did the same.
Is there a way to highlight matches for ag/grep/ack/pt? Does your Ivy search-tool highlight matches?
Other than that, I am really enjoying how tightly the search tool is integrated into the editor.
I am using Emacs 25.2.1 with Evil Spacemacs and Ivy on Linux.
Update_1
I restarted Spacemacs with the default .spacemacs file and there is no highlighting in the search results. I guess it's a Spacemacs bug.
The following is a listing of what I did:
Renamed .spacemacs to .spacemaces_backup
Restarted emacs, and answer the questions:
What is your preferred editing style? vim
What distribution of spacemacs would you like to start with? spacemacs
What type of completion framework do you want? ivy
(this generates a new .spacemacs file)
Restarted emacs,
SPC s k f
ack from ... : test
"test" is in the search results, but not highlighted.
