find/search the opened buffer and show the result list in the output pane

Hi there,

I have a un-saved buffer opened, and I want to find/search something in this buffer and show the result list in the output pane, just like command "Find in files...", would you help on this? thank you.

Quickest and easiest to save the buffer as a file and then Find in Files.

You could also implement a command in the Lua scripting language.

Thanks Neil for the reply.

PS, I found that the "Filter" in the search can meet the function I need.

Hi,

This has been done before, I modified it to use the output window  - it seems to work with unsaved files :

function mark_all()              -- Mark and list occurrences
    -- Modified from http://lua-users.org/wiki/SciteMarkWord
    -- Fail if no selected text
    if editor.SelectionStart == editor.SelectionEnd then
        return
    end

    -- Use the current selection
    local txt = editor:GetSelText()

    -- Select the indicator properties
    local indic = scite.SetIndicator("word")

    -- Clear previous marks of this type - disable if you want to add marks together
    scite.SendEditor(SCI_INDICATORCLEARRANGE, 0, editor.Length)

    -- Setup the search parameters
    local flags = 0 --SCFIND_WHOLEWORD
   
    -- Perform an initial search
    local s,e = editor:findtext(txt,flags,0)
   
    -- Loop through the file
    while s do
        scite.SendEditor(SCI_INDICATORFILLRANGE, s, e - s)
        trace(props.FileNameExt .. ":" .. (editor:LineFromPosition(s)+1) .. ":" .. editor:GetLine(editor:LineFromPosition(s)))
        s,e = editor:findtext(txt,flags,e+1)
    end
end

Kind Regards
