In mac.bind, we have:

#  +: "Command-G"                    # Find the next occurrence of the
selection
\bind "C-g"                          "word-find-forward"

So that should work as you expect, David. I take it that it does not work?

If you open Tools> Preferences> Editing> Shortcuts and type "word-find"
in the "show key-bindings containing" field, what do you get?
