A wee request regarding search notification (and file selection)

Hi all.

Loving the book editor, so much less bother than using the unpack tool like I used to!

I do have a request however.

Is it possible that there could be an option to suppress the replace dialog box when performing S&R operations – and maybe instead display the basic results in the status bar or something?

Having to click "OK" after every replace operation does get a little tiresome after a while.


Another thing I thought of while writing this post, how about an option to reset to "current file" when changing tabs from a html (text) page to a css (style) page? There have been a few times when I've done S&R operations on multiple html files, then switched to the CSS file to make some tweaks, and said a few naughty words when the search didn't work because it was set to "all text" instead of "current file".


Just a couple of thoughts

Thanks

If you do a single replace you get no dialog box. And if you do a bulk replace you get a popup that allows you to both see what changed and if you dont like what changed revert all the changes.
