Enhance "Search Results" in Document Selector

Post by HMikeWenzel »

I'm sure a lot of people have this problem.

I use Textpad VERY heavily with a lot of files open in the Document
Selector. I will very often do a Find-in-Files to find a keyword in
all my code files. Then I go back and forth between search results
and the various files where the keyword is located.

When doing this, it is hard to find "Search Results" in the long list
of files in the Document Selector. I would prefer that "Search Results"
be renamed to "_Search Results" or something to put it at the top of
the Document selector. If this could also be color-coded, it would be
even better!

Window | Search Results or <Shift+F11> activates the Search Results window.

Thanks, Ben. But I would still like to see the highlighting in the
Document Selector. It doesn't seem like it would be too hard
to change the name of "Search Results" to "_Search Results"
or somesuch.

I will use the hotkey you suggested.
