Thread: Printing search results




Printing search results

I've recently had to do extensive work in tracking down
usage of various 
functions and checking that they are used correctly in
correct contexts. 
What I found useful was to search for the function-name, and
then go to 
each instance found and check it.

One thing that would make it even better though, would be if
I could 
print the search results, so that I could check them off one
by one as I 
finished checking them, but I could find no way to do this
in WingIDE 
3.0a2? (I haven't tried in 2.1.x)

Is it possible? Alternatively, being able to copy and paste
to another 
file which could then be printed, but I can't do that either
it seems.

If anyone has a nice way of doing this that doesn't involve
the printer, 
and doesn't involve not doing any more searches, I'd
appreciate any 
suggestions.

When I need to keep around searches, I just add additional
instances
of the Search in Files tool, which you can do by right
clicking
on the tool tabs area where you want to place it.

Does that address what you need?

Saving sets of results might be a nice feature to add in the
future, though.

Thanks,
