This dialog must be updated. Right now it only searches from caret
position to end of document. The bits to search backwards are in place
so I must update it.=20

Will take a try then.

And as find is bogus there, what about egrep.

We can avoid maxdepth and set recursive or not.

Non recursive:
egrep -in term

Recursive:
egrep -irn term

Does it works in your system ?

All is ok, and neat :)

In linux there used to be a script called htmlview that defauts to the
preferred browser in the system.

In fact it searches among a bunch of browsers checking the environment.

But I think I must to put an entry in the configuration file asking for
a browser as cssed needs it to show the help.

May be I also should wrap a function in the plugins API called
open_in_default_browser() to make it avaiable to all plugins.

Of course those bits can be on the plugin cose.

If the problem is to open the browser from the plugin, just use
g_spanw_command_line_async() and that's all.

Happy to know that. I was wondering if the plugable interface would be
use by anyone but me :)
