Aha, so that's the original purpose of "exclude". I didn't know that, and it's not exactly obvious (despite the name). Pretty cool though :-)
Until now, I have exclusively used it to '"mark" occurences that have been "processed" in any sense' as you described it nicely. It works well for me, although I always thought the name could be changed from "exclude/include" to "mark/unmark" or something. The name makes sense now, only for refactoring preview though. Maybe it should be renamed for all the other searches? -Thomas > -----Original Message----- > From: Valentin Kipiatkov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, October 26, 2001 5:32 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Eap-features] "Find - Search result" doesn't show what's > been searched for when nothing has been found > > > > Also, i noticed that i can right-click and "exclude" search > results.
