Just some observations about searching in the Gems manager

I keep closing the Ruby Gems manager (6.5) after typing in the search
box because I hit Enter - can't train myself to not hit that Enter key.
I am wondering if others have the same problem. I am wondering if the
Close button should not be the default for Enter.

When I am in the Generator, and I click the Install Generators button,
the Gems Manager appears. Because of the RFE or suggestion that I filed
earlier, it now shows the Installed tab. I click New Gems and I see
generate$ appears in the search box. But the list is the full list. I
have to type in the box (such as delete and re-add the $) to make the
search work.

See:

http://ruby.netbeans.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=1980

I believe it is just a bad habit which will cease during the future
usage of Gem Manager.

That's bug. Could you file it.

Thanks,

Perhaps, but because the Plugins manager requires an enter to make
search work, it will be hard to remember which search box needs an Enter
and which one I should never press Enter. I think that searching as I
type is an improvement, just would prefer to click Close to close the
dialog box. But that might just be me Very Happy .

I will file the bug about generate$

Yes, you are right. But that's bug in (or rather RFE for) the Plugins
Manager. I guess that Plugin Manager might need a large overhaul, thus
not sure whether Erno is going to implement immediate-search into 6.5.
Could you file a bug into ruby/rails anyway?

Yup, right again. I've fixed the Gem Manager to 'eat Enter' in the
search fields. It cheats by doing nothing, since filter task is already
submitted and will be applied in few milliseconds. So from the user's
point of view it looks like the Enter is really functional.

Fixed: #93554670ac9c

In other word, I wanted to say, that Enter does not close the Gem
Manager dialog anymore :)
