Re: Commit: patch 9.1.0009: Cannot easily get the list of matches

This is very cool!
I have tried to install as soon as it went out (I am follower on GitHub so I am immediately notified) but then I found out that matchbufline() is not available (yet) on MacVim (at its 9.1 Version). 
I'll install it as soon as that command will be available on MacVim.

    patch 9.1.0009: Cannot easily get the list of matches

    Problem:  Cannot easily get the list of matches
    Solution: Add the matchstrlist() and matchbufline() Vim script
              functions (Yegappan Lakshmanan)


To demonstrate the use of the new matchbufline() function, I have created
the following script.  This does search text completion from the list of words
in the current buffer.  After typing a few letters in the "/" prompt, if you press
Tab, it will complete the word from the current buffer.  If you press Tab again,
then it will go to the next match.  If you press Shift-Tab, it will go back to
the previous match.


I have uploaded this plugin to the https://github.com/yegappan/searchcomplete repository.

Regards,
Yegappan
