I’m sorry Jens if I sounded too hostile. To be more positive about it, I think 
the basic problem with the find option in XCode is that unless you want to do 
exactly as you describe it is generally cumbersome and I think the route cause 
of the problem is the lack of a “advanced find” facility. You are right, the 
“jumping” way of doing things is quicker in a lot of cases, but having to click 
a few times to change the settings is definitely not an optimum UI in the 
context of a text editor inside XCode. 

I’m thinking back to CodeWarrior now, it had two modes, a quick find mode which 
behaved pretty much as you want and a more advanced find mode which was really 
easy to use when you have tricky editing to do. I really find it hard to 
understand why this was removed when we “upgraded” from XCode 3. I haven’t used 
it for a while, but I think that except for the “jumping” facility it pretty 
much did that?

Sorry for being a grump!
Dave
