Completion style for matching regexps in any order
This package provides an `orderless' completion style that divides the pattern into components (space-separated by default), and matches candidates that match all of the components in any order. Completion styles are used as entries in the variables `completion-styles' and `completion-category-overrides', see their documentation. To use this completion style you can use the following minimal configuration: (setq completion-styles '(orderless)) You can customize the `orderless-component-separator' to decide how the input pattern is split into component regexps. The default splits on spaces. You might want to add hyphens and slashes, for example, to ease completion of symbols and file paths, respectively. Each component can match in any one of several matching styles: literally, as a regexp, as an initialism, in the flex style, or as word prefixes. It is easy to add new styles: they are functions from strings to strings that map a component to a regexp to match against. The variable `orderless-matching-styles' lists the matching styles to be used for components, by default it allows literal and regexp matching.
