I use Safari's upper right search text field to google something. Fine. After doing that I return to TM and the search string appears in TM's Find Dialog? This could be under some circumstances quite useful but is there a way to suppress such behaviour?
I imagine that they started using the shared "find buffer" for that field in Safari. Forgive me if this is old news, but if you select something and hit ⌘E, it gets put into a system wide buffer. That string then becomes "the thing you're searching for" in all Cocoa applications. I've seen it shared between OmniWeb, TextMate, Quicksilver, TextEdit, etc. Although it usually only applies to the ⌘F "search in page", I guess they decided to use it for the web search control in Safari as well.
I don't know of a way to suppress the behavior, but you could avoid it by using OmniWeb. :)
Thanks. I see.
I only wonder whether TM could be configured in such a way to use either the "shared find buffer" or a "local find buffer". I believe, if any, that would be a question to Allan.
