Hi there,
the title already says it all: What i'd love to have is a status indicator ('searching...') or a progress indictator ( 'x% of project files searched') in the 'find in project'-window. I use it often on a project of some thousand files on a network volume. Searching the project always takes a few seconds (i'm cool with that) and i always wonder whether textmate is already working or not because it doesn't provide _any_ immediate feedback.
cheers, Till Backhaus

I agree. Didn't have that huge projects but status indicator a-la "loadind/searching..." is always good. Mayba something like grayed-out fields within search form while searching?

More important than a progress indicator, I would like a way to cancel a long running Find in Project...
Best regards,

yeah, that would be nice too.

Along with a way to disable searching binary files, it would be perfect.
TextMate will not search binary files, granted it knows that the file type is binary. So right-click a file (using the extension you want to exclude) in the project drawer and select to treat it as binary.

Ah, excuse my laziness.
But just few little questions then: Is this exclusion list Project relative, or TM global? Is there a way to edit binary extensions (in Preferences like Folder references fields?) without using "Treat ..." for each of those? (probably I can do it with "defaults"?) How do I make folder with extension .pages or .drawit to be treated as single binary, though opened with double-click with associated app, and avoiding search to step into that folder too?
Thanks,
Just one more suggestion, it would be cool if files that are treated as binary had different icon in project drawer than text files. I don't know if it is feasible, but it would also help a lot.
Regards,

There is already *some* feedback, but it's very subtle. On my system (Intel, Tiger) the 'Find' button in the Find In Project dialog pulses slightly when the find is idle, and does not pulse when it's busy. I've found myself relying on that quite a bit to know that the find operation has completed (especially when nothing was found).
Something a little more overt would be appreciated, though!
