But then again, rar is probably a corner case. I have personally never ran into that problem in all the searches I did on AUR so it is probably not a big deal :)
Ever tried to search vi? :) +1 from Just Another User on Xavier's suggestion to do the same as in viewvc.
I think it would be a great new feature, but still I think that if we have an exact match, it should be shown first.
I've quickly modified Find.php to do that. At line 261, I changed the if block to :
if ($pattern || ($type != 'php' && $type != 'perl')) { while (list(,$entry) = each($data)) { if ($match_function($pattern, $fullpath ? $entry : basename($entry))) { if ($entry == $pattern) { array_unshift($matches, $entry); } else { $matches[] = $entry; } } } }
Of course, this only works if $pattern correspond exactly to what the user has typed, which I am absolutely not sure. Anyway, don't you think it's a good idea ?
Unfortunately Find.php has nothing to do with searching for packages on the web. It's really just a copy of http://pear.php.net/package/File_Find.
