Find has no "whole words only" option
I must be missing something here. This seems like such as basic feature of any serious text editor.
As was mentioned, use regular expressions and add \b
This is not convenient enough. Whole-word search is my default when I write code; I like double-clicking a variable name, hitting Command-E, and Command-G to find other instances of that variable. Having to go into the Find dialog and adding \b makes this much less pleasant.
