consult-everything

Use Consult to read results from Everything.

Requirements

• Windows OS
• Everything command line interface
• A recent version of Emacs for Windows.

Installation

Install from Github via straight.el until the software is available on MELPA or ELPA. The package depends on consult.el and orderless.el.

A simple package installation recipe is

(use-package consult-everything
  :straight (consult-everything :host github :repo "jthaman/consult-everything"))

I use this use-package incantation:

(use-package consult-everything
  :if (eq system-type 'windows-nt)
  :after consult
  :load-path "~/lisp/consult-everything/"
  :config
  (general-define-key ; set key in Normal state for Evil users.
   :states 'normal
   "SPC L" 'consult-everything))

Recommendation

Install the embark package to open files externally from the minibuffer, rather than in Emacs.
