像emacs中的模糊搜索一样崇高？

Question

I'm new to emacs and started loving it.

Well, I work on NodeJs and other java script stuff. I tried flx-ido for fuzzy search but it's not searching in sub directories. Is there any fuzzy search plugin available in emacs that's similar to sublime fuzzy search.

I don't have any specific project meta data hence i don't want to use projectile or helm etc.., Any will be greatly appreciated.

Dunno what Sublime fuzzy search is like, but with Icicles you can use several kinds of fuzzy search over a directory hierarchy, ie, through subdirs.

You can use the different fuzzy matching methods with any Icicles commands, including the file-searching commands.

The relevant Icicles doc is this:

• Completion Methods and Styles - different kinds of fuzzy matching
• Find Files Anywhere - searching a file hierarchy

For example, you can use command icicle-locate-file to search a under a directory for files whose names or contents match a search pattern, which can be a regexp or make use of fuzzy matching.
