Hi developers,
I think that find in files feature should not make the main editing window pause/stop working. I didn't get in to the source yer so I assume that find in files doesn't have it's own thread and doesn't run in background. This temporary hang/pause problem made hard to use np++ for the big and lots of source file (mine is linux kernel on a linux samba share). I do try "Programmer's Notepad" find in files feature and love that the main editing window still can be using while find process run in background. Hope np++ have some like this soon. I am on windows vista.
Thank for your good works.

I tried to implement the thread support for Find in files, but for some unknown reasons it didn't work.
If you want to work on it, you'll be very welcome, and I'll include your modification if it's high quality coding.
