    Hi gnosygnu.
    When you implemented multiple tabs feature you took XOWA to a whole new level of professionalism, now for me personally, there is only one more requirement I would like to suggest, then in my opinion, you will have ticked all my boxes.
    Currently in the word search feature, only one of the search words are highlighted at anyone time.
    I would greatly appreciate it if you could implement the same principle as they have done in Windows Internet Explorer, that simultaneously highlights in yellow, every occurrence of the desired search word highlighted on the entire page, so that instead of stepping through, one has the alternative option of quick visual scan by scrolling the page instead.

    Thanks for the feedback, especially regarding the impact of the tabs.

    Highlighting all words is possible. This was requested before by someone else, but I didn't have the time to do it. Honestly, I still don't have the time to do it, but it's much easier than the tabs, so I'll try to squeeze it in. I'll do it for either a release this month, or at worse, next. (I'm taking a break in late-May / early-June)

    I'll post again here when done. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Hey.... v2.5.4.1 has a multiple-word highlight feature. There are two minor issues that I'll fix for next release, but hopefully it should be good enough for now. Let me know if you run into any issues. Thanks.
