I just upgraded from BBEdit 8.72 to BBEdit 9.5.
In the new search, I notice I can't do the CMD+T to force the search
to start from the top of the file anymore.
Is there a way to do that?
I know about the wrap option, but that's different.
I don't have an answer to your question. But I am curious as to why
you see the wrap option as "different". It you start a search from
the start (top) of a file it obviously searches the entire file
stopping for a hit. If the wrap option starts from where the cursor
is and searches through the file wrapping end to start till you get
back to where the cursor is, isn't the end result the same? What am
I missing here?
If the string you are looking for is the only occurrence or you are
looking for all the occurrences, there is little difference since
both will find the string. OTOH, if you are looking for a specific
occurrence out of a number of occurrences (and know that it is or
near the first occurrence) you want to start at the top and not
wherever you current are (as would be the case with wrap). With wrap
in this case, you would need get each occurrence displayed for you
and need to reject them to go to the next in your search (and only
find it once you have reached the end of the file and wrapped back to
the top).
