Description-en: alternative to Emacs' isearch, with an overview
Swiper is an Ivy-enhanced alternative to isearch. When a regex
(regular expression) search is initiated it displays an overview of
search candidates. The search regex can be split into groups with a
space. Each group is highlighted with a different face.
.
It can double as a quick regex-builder; however, only single
lines will be matched. Swiper uses Ivy to show an overview of all
matches.
