Ah! It's defeated me. After extensive reading of the docs at github, I managed to create a fork and clone it to my desktop machine. I installed Folderin and FolderOut and got the src into Sigil where the edit was a doddle. FolderOut worked ok and I checked my clone content and it was updated.
Despite many efforts and lots of doc reading and hassles with passwords (which they ask for but abolished use of in 2021), tokens, installing CLI software etc- the push to my fork seemed to go ok on the cli but when I investigated the find_replace.xhtml in src on my fork online, it had not been modified (updated).
Next effort was to edit the find_replace.xhtml from line 230 inside my fork online - saved and was presented with a Commit dialog followed by a Pull request dialog which I completed. It all looked good.
But when I log in this morning, the find_replace.xhtml is still unchanged. So I don't understand where I went astray - but, it is hellish complicated.
I don't like being defeated.
Edit: Further searching online in my fork shows that after editing the xhtml file, in the save procedure I created a new branch pj7-patch-1. When I look inside this branch, my edits to the find_replace.xhtml file are there ok. And the pull request is logged as made there.
So it looks like I didn't understand how to do the Pull request. Amongst other things.
Feeling humbled.
