Real-time results from find-in-files

Postby kairn » Wed Nov 30, 2005 5:18 pm

Is there any way to have find-in-files display its results as it finds the terms rather than just displaying everything once it finishes? When you're searching thousands of files, it's nice to see the instance you're looking for and stop the search (rather than waiting for the entire search to complete).

I do notice that if you send the output to the edit window the results are updates as matches are found. This is exactly what I'm looking for, but I want the results to show up in the output pane. Does anyone know if this is possible?

UltraEdit version 13 doesn't wait anymore until the search is complete before updating the output window.
