Is it possible to have BBEdit display the search results in the same window in a lower pane or split pane?  I don't want the results to open into a new seperate window.   As I click in the results windows in the lower pane, it takes me to the line or row from my Grep or search terms. Use case:
> Open Find . Enter your search term or grep 
> Click Find All, (opens a new window)

It's not possible to list the results in the original window; but since Search Results windows present an editable view (just like the original), there's not really a functional difference, only a different presentation from what you just described.

You could use "Quick Find" to visualize and navigate through the results in-window, as well.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me.
