I loved the way Find in Files worked in UltraEdit 14, results showed up on the bottom of the screen and you could stop it when whatever I was looking for appeared.
Now search is done in the background, and it doesn't work for me.
Example:
Just now I had to find one text file with a name in it. I did not know where the file was, so I just pointed Find in Files to the root folder. It then used a lot of minutes searching through a lot of files and then some minutes spewing out the result
"Search complete found 'someting' 22766 time(s). 7992 file(s)"
I just needed the first one, or any one!
Is there a function in UltraEdit 19/20 that does this that I'm not aware of?
If not, could you guys implement it?
What I want is either:
- the same method as in UltraEdit 14, results are shown immediately and I could stop the search when I saw what I was looking for;
- a checkbox that said "stop search after finding X" where X would be an integer I entered
Thanks
