How do I incremental search in Atom Editor?

Question

How can I do an incremental search (similar to Sublime Text's Cmd-F or Cmd-I) in GitHub's Atom Editor?

Answer 1

find-and-replace is one of the core Atom packages. You can enable incremental search by updating the settings for this package. Check the option "Scroll To Result On Live-Search" and optionally change the Live Search Minimum Characters (defaults to 3).

Answer 2

There's an incremental search package available now: https://atom.io/packages/incremental-search

It seems to be modeled after incremental search in Emacs.
