More options in the Contents tab, Search only selected files

Excuse me for my bad english
[Contents]
This function searches for words in all files in the current folder :appl: , but I want to exclude the search some files

:idea: please add

1: [] Search only selected files
2: save the history of searched words [v]
3: adding a preview as text [button preview ]
and it would be great that highlights the search Word

if added to the previous option, then you could look at the following file using another button [Find Next]

we must expand the search and exploration to the inside of the file.

It is important?

thank you

This was just recently introduced in v15.80.

You can either use '+' in the Location field or right-click the find button and select Search in Selected Items:

Read all about it in the help file under Main Topics > Find Files > Tab "Name & Location" > Search in List.
A script to jump directly there:

Code: Select all

::help 'idh_find.htm#idh_findfilessearchinlist';

All these options have the notepad++, but the idea is that they were embedded in XYplorer
