Firefox-style find feature

Post by USCode »

I love the way the Firefox "Find" works and think it would be a great addition to the PureBasic IDE code editor:
- A panel resides at the bottom of the window all the time, ready for searching. No box in the way in the screen, etc.
- As soon as you start typing, it starts searching, highlighting the first match.
- All matches can be highlighted.
- etc... If you have used Firefox you know what I mean.

It shows red when the next character is not found inside of that sequence of characters being searched, plus a sound ability is a nice touch.

Personally I think it's more work than it's worth.
