Any workaround? It's not a bug: by default, "$" won't be counted as a word character. However, it is possible to change the set of characters that Scintilla treats as word-characters (and also what is treated as whitespace and punctuation). At the moment, I don't think QScintilla provides a way to do this through the high-level api. (It is possible to re-implement the QSciLexer wordCharacters function, but I think this will only directly affect auto-completion). Instead, you could try setting the word-characters through the low-level api, i.e.: SendScintilla(SCI_SETWORDCHARS, characters) Note that setting the word-characters in this way will change the behaviour of Scintilla in several ways, not just finding text. For instance, double-clicking a word to select it will include any new characters you have added. For more info, see the Scintilla docs: http://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaDoc.html#SCI_SETWORDCHARS And also the QsciScintillaBase docs: http://pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/QScintilla2/classQsciScintillaBase.html#pub-methods -- Regards Baz Walter _______________________________________________ QScintilla mailing list [email protected] http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/qscintilla Confidentiality Notice.
