Dear Wilhelm,

Please, read the plugin docs before posting such a mail which hurts me and don't tell the truth.

Dear Eric,

Despite my earnest intention not to be "rude" it seems I underestimated this task (Here is the place for an appropriate smiley).

What I tried to respond to was the question of the joint search of Dictionary, Faq, Topics etc. at the same time and your reservations about the longer search time needed then.

Indeed I did not explore the many options you implemented in your "research centre", and my comment about the differences of the found lines was more of an afterthought after a first test.

Your stack does not search the actual dictionary but through custom properties you have implemented (BTW a good idea for speed).
Resources Picker searches always the "real" dictionary.


My tool "SearchDocs XML" searches the "real" dictionary, too, the only difference being that I stripped the XML tags and stored the pure text in arrays. The additional advantage of this procedure - apart from a momentous gain in speed - is that you can search for any length of a string in the docs. As an example, you could search for a longer string like "move an animation to its starting frame", which in most cases would not be possible with the search functions in the Rev docs, because the searchstring would probably be interrupted by XML tags in the real XML files.

I surely will explore your tool in full and provide feedback if questions or recommendations come up.

Best regards,

Wilhelm Sanke
