Paul,

Thank you. When I scanned the sections in Chapter 6 I missed that one.

I often find myself looking through several manuals trying to find information. 
It would be much better if I could make a single search of all manuals. Maybe 
there is a way and I just do not know it.

Open up advanced find and click on the "settings" tab. Then choose "All 
manuals".

Very nice Scott. I thought there might be a good way of doing this.
Hal

It would be nice to have something like Help > Search all manuals, and
it would essentially open advanced find and set it to search all
manuals. Currently it's a bit hidden.

Scott

Also one cannot currently search the manuals without opening another
document which is a little odd.

Agreed. We would need to allow the advanced find pane to be opened
without a buffer.


This may just be a matter of changing the isBufferDependent method for 
that dialog. But there may be other aspects of its setup that really do 
need a buffer. That could probably be changed, but it might need more work.
