    When searching a very large text file (many 10's or 100's of thousands of lines), it would be nice if the Find NEXT/PREVIOUS didn't wrap. You have to carefully watch the displayed line number to make sure you're not just going back to the first hit Is there an option to change the NEXT/PREV so they won't wrap? I couldn't find anything in Help.

      Configuration ->Search ->Miscellaneous ->Continue find at end of file

      From UE help: "This option determines if the search for a string is to be continued at the opposite end of the file if the string is not found. If this option is not set, the editor does NOT wrap around at the end of file when searching for a string. The default behavior is for the editor to continue the search from the opposite end of the file when a target is not found."
      It's impossible to lead us astray for we don't care even to choose the way.
