This is the last of the very big new feature implementations for the next Tiko version.

It is also the feature that I was so badly for Tiko. It is a mirror of the find in project functionality found in the Zed Editor. It allows you to do a search and then do live editing of the results in smaller 5 line windows of each result.

The screenshot shows a search for an AfxNova function "AfxStrReplace".

The screenshot may look at little cluttered because I need to do a sweep on the overall theme colors. The point here is the new functionality, not the visuals.

Hi Paul,

This is a very useful feature — great job!

I have a question: does this feature only search within the current project file?

I think in the future, this module could be extracted and turned into a standalone user tool. That way, we could search for specific text within a local folder, and maybe even support regular expressions, similar to dnGrep.

Also, the new UI and new features are all excellent — really looking forward to the release!
