Having just tried out the new 1.1b4 version, I just have to share a few thoughts.
1. The Search field in the File Chooser window should contain a number of options a la Finder & Mail for how the search algorithm should work.
Although it's cool to just type 'td' to get the 'todo.txt' file, but sometimes I want to be able to just use 'str' to find the files that have "string" in them for example. Or doing a find on 'class.' to just have my various classes show up as another example. There are many more.
2. HTML Output Options. The new Bundle Editor is really cool, especially the resizing when switching from "Show as HTML" to "Show in separate window".
Although I assume Allan have already thought about this, I just have to ask. Is there any chance that we could have a few options there as well ? Such as
Default Format: None - <pre> - <code> - <p> - (??) (if it's not obvious what I mean, just let me know)
Default HTML File: 'Choose file field' / path
If we could have a default HTML file that the command output could be replaced into. Sort of like this:
<html> <stylesheet> <body> $TM_COMMAND_OUTPUT </body> </html>
I know that we could create files and code in our commands to do most of this, but it won't be as elegant.
Kind regards,
Mats

I'd prefer just to tweak the algorithm to detect when the user wants to do substring searching (and give matches here a higher ranking in the list) -- when this is mentioned in the release notes as done, feel free to take it up again, if you still do not feel it's working for you.

I do have a few options in mind, but actually not the ones you mention. Let's give this feature a few weeks to see how people use it, and if there is a preference for what you request, then I'll re-consider :)
