When I do package-list-packages and I’m searching for a package, the search is not restricted to the package names, but searches the descriptions as well, and this requires scrolling down before starting the search.

Can the search be restricted to the column with the names?

    What is the meaning of that?
    Just typing this at the swiper prompt searches for /-n

      The command is specific to the packages list.

      It won’t work with regular sniper.

        Thanks for the explanation, that possibility did not cross my mind, since I’m used to use swiper. :)

        So then it is / n.
