I often use Quick Find in BBEdit 9.6.3. I'd like to be able to use a keystroke to transfer whatever text I've selected in my document (usually a single word) into the Quick Find dialog, but I can't find one. The Preferences define various keystrokes (such as command-e, etc.) for making the selection the search text in the regular or multi-file search dialogs, but the only Quick Find reference in there seems to be for showing Quick Find (command-option-f), not for putting text into it.
In fact, it seems to me that if I have text selected when I call up Quick Find, it should automatically transfer that into the field without my having to use any extra keystroke. Currently the only way I can get the selected text into there is to do a copy and paste, which isn't bad, but I use it so often I'd prefer something quicker. I could find nothing about this either online or in the User Guide. Perhaps someone here has a suggestion? Thanks. -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
