Re: [ jEdit-users ] where to consume event in macro

[Slava P. <sl...@je...>]

Even better would be to bypass the SearchAndReplace class and just
search for the one character 'manually':

seg = new Segment();
buffer.getText(start,buffer.getLength() - start,seg);
end = -1;

for(i=0; i < buffer.getLength(); i++)
{
    if(seg.array[seg.offset + i] == <character to search for>)
    {
        end = i;
        break;
    }
}

if(end == -1)
    // not found!
else
    textArea.select(start,end);

Have fun,

Slava
