 * PROJ List of things not working

 ** TODO =SPC s s= and =SPC s S= ~:sw~
 There isn't really a selectrum analogue to ~swiper-isearch~, ~consult-isearch~
 does something else (give you previously used isearch search terms).
-** TODO fix C-SPC
-currently after executing the action it:
-- moves the cursor to the new window if created, might not be desired in all cases
-- for some reason opens buffers in a new window (might be upstream bug?)
+** TODO =C-SPC= and live previews
+Automatic live previews have been globally disabled for speed purposes.
+=C-SPC= is partially implemented with the preview key for ~consult-*~ commands.
+Need to get it to work for other selectrum commands such =SPC h f=.

+gets us close but moves the cursor to the new screen which is undesirable.
