[Alexey-T]

@MiroslavMatas @pintassilgo @JairoMartinezA I just found new small plugin
https://github.com/veksha/cuda_search_lite
is it good for you? i did not test. i don't know how to use it.

(use 'Plugins / Addon manager / Install from git')

i don't know how to use it.

Me neither. Plugins should have readme.

I will add readmes to my forks soon.
quick info:

plugin 'search lite'

call it via menuitem in the Plugins menu.
it shows dialog to search for a text in a folder:

you can enter here:

• search text
• folder path to search in

plugin shows results (only first 100 lines) in a big field on the bottom of dlg.
some options are existing in the file __init__.py:

DETECT_LEXER = False
MAX_RESULTS_LINES = 100
MAX_FILE_SIZE_MB = 5
DO_NOT_SEARCH = ['.git', '.cudatext', '__pycache__', '__trash']

dialog hotkeys:

• F1/F2: toggle option 'detect lexer'
• F5/Enter: refresh results
• Tab: move focus

plugin 'scope description'

works for C and C++ lexer. must be activated via menuitem in the Plugins menu: ON/OFF.
shows description of functions below the end of function.

mode 'using gaps':

mode 'w/o gaps':

mode can be toggled via menuitem in the Plugins menu.

Search Lite looks good - as initial idea, and as initial implementation…

dropdown for choose folder - not works on my Windows side… (manual write works fine)

I must be able to set font for search result part - all of my GUI dialogs use GUI font (ui_font_name), not text editor font… /can see support of lexer syntax… so this need option - on UI font ignore syntax coloring…/

what about support filter of input folder?, e.g. C:\My Data\My Working Now*.ps1
option for search sub-folders? or - only 1-level…

so, suggestion - add what you already mention, and later we will request updates/upgrades…

'Search lite' suggestions can't be considered, because the author does not work on code now. @MiroslavMatas
