I wish for a button to count like in Notepad++:
Count button for Find/Replace dialog

A temporary workaround could be to find and replace the same pattern and hit "replace all".
The find/replace dialogue will tell you how often it has replaced the searchpattern.

Yes, that works. Thanks for the tip. I think I will develop a tool. I don't know which tool to develop first.fabulouspaul wrote:A temporary workaround could be to find and replace the same pattern and hit "replace all".

Counts how often the search term appears in the source code.
For example, you want to know if the word "MyProc()" appears in the source code. You can search for "MyProc()", but then the text cursor changes and you don't always want that. You don't have the problem with the count button.

Because I don't know when this function will be implemented, I have now developed a tool: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=73078
