Search algorithm ranking failure #295

Description

@danbst

I have a list of files (here is the dump https://gist.github.com/danbst/e43a7e24d67acae3d441eb563e388bf7).

I want to locate fast file named HO.py. However because words python and homework contain those two letters, they flood up search list. What I'd like to have:

  • punctuation (like dot) should be allowed to type
  • exact matches are ranked higher than fuzzy
  • case-to-case matches are ranked higher than fuzzy
  • /HO should rank path part starting with HO higher
