Slava, highlighting/selecting all of the matches per line would be great. I think there was a macro that did something similar to this at one point. Randall, in many instances I can easily spot all of the occurences of a match on a single line, but in some files, particularly complex html, it can be quite difficult. I think the multiple highlighting would be a good solution though. Pete Slava Pestov wrote: > Pete, > > This is in fact intentional.
