      If I am searching for an expression, for example “error”, in a text document and using the “Find all in current document” and I get a new window with the sarch result and that expression is found several times in some rows then I get multiple rows in the result window. Is there a way to only show one row no matter how many times the expression “error” is found on each row.
      So if the original file looks like this:

      123 error somethingsomethingsomehting error 1234567 error

      The search result will show 3 rows:
      Line 1: 123 **error **somethingsomethingsomehting error 1234567 error
      Line 1: 123 error somethingsomethingsomehting **error **1234567 error
      Line 1: 123 error somethingsomethingsomehting error 1234567 error

      But I would like it to be
      Line 1: 123 **error **somethingsomethingsomehting **error **1234567 error

      Cheers, Eric
