Fuzzy match should be non-greedy

[astoff]

So, for instance, the below example should have two matches on the same line, define-minor-mo and de ctrlf-local-mo. The shorter matches allow a more fine-grained movement, and greediness doesn't work well in files with long lines.

PS: Since this package is all about being sensible, couldn't the CRTLF prompt be replaced by something non-ugly, like Search? Also, I find that little arrow a bit gimmicky. I never forget what direction I was searching, unless I go for lunch in the middle of a search. I do sometimes loose track of whether I'm below or above the search starting point, though, which is what I initially thought the arrow was telling me.

Yes, replacing .* with .*? in the greedy regexp builder should be safe and sensible, as you suggested.

I have no objection to making the prompt appearance customizable. I, in my personal configuration, would like to keep it as is, but there is no reason that everyone needs to see the same thing. Perhaps we could do something like mode-line-format, where it is a list of strings and/or symbols, like:

(setq ctrlf-prompt-format '("CTRLF " search-direction " " search-style ": "))

That's a neat idea, the mode-line-format-style prompt.
