Hi

A proposal

Many times, we use search and replace to modify, either some parts of the code or of the text.

Imagine we would like to check all composed names including a hyphen: like plate-forme, cerf-volant. Or to look after all the superscripts, or all the elided forms beginning with l'. The list is endless.

Now, if our search yields hundreds of occurrences, what are we supposed to do? Check them one by one? This is not very handy.

Proposal

As long as we are dealing with words, would it be possible to find a way to display the results of a search -a list of words- in the window of the spellchecker? (or in a different window of this kind) This would make the control much easier.
