Hello
Would it be possible to have a search option that would:
# List Lines Containing String opens non-modal Find dialog
# Highlight all found occurrences of string
# Count number of occurrences of string

especially the first one as i have to search thru very big log files and i would like to search find and display all the lines that contain the given search word. That way i’m able to see things i need to see

thank you

# List Lines Containing String opens non-modal Find dialog
You can use “Find in Files”

# Highlight all found occurrences of string
By default, all found occurrences are highlighted.

# Count number of occurrences of string
For this one, you have to write a macro, or use “Replace” to replace all with a dummy string, and you can see the count in the status bar, and Undo.
