Description

The function set-list-panel-keyboard-search-reset-time sets the default length of time before resetting the "last match" in keyboard searching in a list-panel. The argument time specifies this time in seconds.

When the user types a character into a list-panel, if there is a "last match" the system searches for a string made of the "last match" followed by the character, otherwise it searches for a string made of the character only. The system sets the "last match" when it matches, and remembers the "last match" for one second by default. set-list-panel-keyboard-search-reset-time can be used to change the time for which the "last match" is kept.

Notes

When keyboard-search-callback returns a third value non-nil, the value that set-list-panel-keyboard-search-reset-time sets is ignored.
