;;; Commentary:

;; This package provides an `orderless' completion style that divides
;; the pattern into components (space-separated by default), and
;; matches candidates that match all of the components in any order.

;; Completion styles are used as entries in the variables
;; `completion-styles' and `completion-category-overrides', see their
;; documentation.

;; To use this completion style you can use the following minimal
;; configuration:

;; (setq completion-styles '(orderless))

;; You can customize the `orderless-component-separator' to decide how
;; the input pattern is split into component regexps.  The default
;; splits on spaces.  You might want to add hyphens and slashes, for
;; example, to ease completion of symbols and file paths,
;; respectively.

;; Each component can match in any one of several matching styles:
;; literally, as a regexp, as an initialism, in the flex style, or as
;; word prefixes.  It is easy to add new styles: they are functions
;; from strings to strings that map a component to a regexp to match
;; against.  The variable `orderless-component-matching-styles' lists
;; the matching styles to be used for components, by default it allows
;; regexp and initialism matching.
