Request: Find All - Option to show subsequent x lines in search results.
-
“Find All in Opened Documents” and “Find All in Current Document” are absolutely brilliant - makes my life sooo much easier. I sometimes use it as a filtered summary for big log files. I think an option to show subsequent X lines in search results would be useful. Where X would be a determinable number of subsequent lines.
So instead of showing:
Line 44373: Web Service: XYZ Start: 04/11/2015 11:17:58.65
Line 44407: Web Service: XYZ Start: 04/11/2015 11:18:04.03
Line 44488: Web Service: XYZ Start: 04/11/2015 11:18:25.00it could show:
Line 44373: Web Service: XYZ Start: 04/11/2015 11:17:58.65
UserName: abc
yyy success
Line 44407: Web Service: XYZ Start: 04/11/2015 11:18:04.03
UserName: abc
yyy success
Line 44488: Web Service: XYZ Start: 04/11/2015 11:18:25.00
UserName: abc
yyy failPerhaps I’m using the wrong tool for the job (suggestions welcome). But, as a suggestion I hope this would make this great editor a tiny bit greater. Many thanks.

I’d suggest using the LineFilter2 plugin. I use it all the time to filter through huge log files. It is able to save lines before and after a search result.

Awesome, glad I asked. Many thanks.
