Well, I came up with a solution for Dimitri's problem, but unfortunately
not for Chris's (yet).

For those like Dima, who want to see a confirmation dialog before
replace-all, you can:
1) extract the file /org/gjt/sp/jedit/actions.xml from jedit.jar
2) find the section: <ACTION NAME=3D"replace-all" ...
3) Before "SearchAndReplace.replaceAll(view);", add the following:
if (JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(view, "Replace all occurrences of \""
+=20
SearchAndReplace.getSearchString() + "\" with \"" +
SearchAndReplace.getReplaceString() + "\"?",
"Confirm Replace All", JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION)
 =3D=3D JOptionPane.YES_OPTION)

4) replace the edited actions.xml into jedit.jar/org/gjt/sp/jedit/

------

I was trying to figure out something similar for Chris...like to call
the following AFTER the call to SearchAndReplace.replaceAll(view);:

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(view, "Replaced {x} Occurrences of \"" +=20
SearchAndReplace.getSearchString() + "\".","Information",=20
JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);

However, it seems it is not possible to get the count of replacements
out of the SearchAndReplace class.  I already spent too much time on
this, so I'm giving up.  My next approach was going to be to try and
read the message off the status bar.  Perhaps someone would like to pick
up there.
