   Dear author,
   The Find box is missing "Count" feature which is popular in other editor. It seems that "Find Results" window is not working.

   Another Find/Find in Files feature which would make me go from really liking this tool to loving it, would be if it stored the last x directories and file types you searched for. (Currently when you hit the drop down it displays "Current File, Current Folder, and Current Project Folder" adding the last several directories the user actually searched in would make my work much more efficient. Thanks again for a great product!

   I would personally prefer they add a more practical (in my opinion, at least): "find in opened files" since I use that frequently when I am using an editor (which I generally use for editing misc. files in a non-project-oriented manner).

   As for searching other directories, I think that is leaving the scope of what a text/code editor is for, and that system search/index tools are better suited to such tasks.

   Another thing that seems to be broken is the 'mark all occurrences' button.

   another great feature would be highlight (or mark) the results in the text so that we could easily spot it. i see the "mark" button under Find tab but greyed out...

   Thanks,

   Mark should be coming back now Scintilla has support for text marks that don't collide with the text styling information.

   The latest release adds support for doing Find in Files across all open files (see the Find where box).

   I was also looking for why the "mark all" button is greyed out and I've found this discussion.
   "mark all" could/should trigger on the bookmark of the matched line to make it visually easier to spot them, if the styling is in collision with the text mark.

   For the next release, Find Next in currently open files and Find in Files across those same files is now implemented.

   I've also just re-implemented Mark All. Currently it doesn't set bookmarks, it just highlights all instances. I was thinking of adding Bookmark All as a separate command. Thoughts?
