Add file name completion when searching about pter HOT 8 CLOSED

You're right, partial matches work! It's no big deal for me with two distinctively named files, but with more files I think it'd be helpful to make things more explicit.

And by the way, I love the fact that pter can seamlessly work with multiple files. It was a fantastic idea. I've used several todo.txt apps in the past and they all can either handle one file at a time or use something like tabs, which is often awkward.

Oh, this seems easy to do:

Wasn't there something about a feature freeze for version 3.16? But then again life happened and I had not have a lot of time to implement all the things… so maybe, just maybe…

And here's a patch to support highlighting {file} in task list:

Not a bad idea either! Although I don't think you have to provide the exact filename? Just any distinctive part should work? Like, if one file is at documents/project1/todo.txt and another is at shared/work.txt, you should be able to find all issues from the todo.txt by searching for file:pro

I spoke too soon: the completion in this case should be limited to search bar only. It doesn't make sense in "Edit task" or "New task" dialogs, for example.

How about this:
80-filename-completion-searchbar.diff.gz
