I use a lot a command that I call "quickSearch" that look for the next text equal that the one that is selected. It is very useful since you can find quickly var declarations, etc. only selecting the word (you'll need only the keyboard!) and press, for exmple Shift- Ctrl-Opt- -> or Shift-Ctrl-Opt- <- (arrow keys) for quickSearchBackward.
The only way I've found is building the macro:
copySelectionToFindPboard: findForward:
or the analogous for findPrevious:
The problem is with this simple action I destroy the FindPboard and this is an unnecessary, I think, colateral effect.
Have s/o solve this not destroying the FindPboard?
Another:
I love to reread the last closed file in a time sorted (stacked) way: last closed file, first one to open. This also allows me to open several files (and close) them quickly.
I used to use Ctrl-Opt-O for that process in AlphaX. I can't find the way for doing this with TM. I think you should save in a file the history of open files, or so... TM haven't memory variables, in any way. Alpha has an embedded interpreter inside it and then read many many procs and variables at start and is easy to refer to them and also has open-hook and close-hook procs that make this stack very easy.
Any idea?
