When I press that combo (by accident) I see the bottom bar of the TM interface become a full-width text field with a flashing insertion cursor, but I have been too scared to type anything into it. Has anyone seen this? Any ideas what it means?
Thanks in advance,
Walter
Interactive search backwards in the file. Not scary but quite useful. And Control-S searches forward in the document.
Thanks! I am confused as to why this search doesn't seem to update (or use) the system-wide search text that you can set with Command E and utilize with Command F and G. But this is a neat trick I hadn't seen before.

This is because it is an incremental search. After you have typed in Control-S the following key strokes start to build up the string you are searching for. Subsequent Control-S while still in this 'mode' will find successive matches to the string you have typed so far.
