Description _ gtzabari 2001-08-09 18:21:01 UTC 
Right now the FIND dialog box quits upon finding a first match. For repeated 
searchs, one must reopen the find dialog box over and over again which is very 
inconvient. There must be a better way of doing this.

I propose we do not close the FIND dialog box until the user instructs us to 
with a CLOSE button or something.

Or you could setup a shortcut key for "find next" but it would have to be 
available off the EDIT pulldown menu so it's easy to find.

There exists find next action in editor, it's F3 key. I hope this is
what you want.
Comment 2 _ gtzabari 2001-08-13 14:33:12 UTC 
If such a shortcut exists, it should show up in the EDIT pulldown 
menu or the find dialog box should list it. Either way, having 
unlisted commands does no one any good ;)
Comment 3 Jan Zajicek 2001-08-13 15:27:41 UTC 
Reassigning to editor. I am not sure if there exists or is planed to
create some list of all shortcuts.
Comment 4 _ gtzabari 2001-08-13 16:08:45 UTC 
I'm not discussing listing _all_ shortcuts.. However _some_ 
shortcuts, such as this one, are used quite often and are 
somewhat "standard" in most editors. As such, I believe it should be 
listed under the EDIT pulldown menu as most other editors do.
