Previous versions of PrimalScript had a very useful “Find in Files” feature. In PrimalScript 4.1 you could search for something in your script files and the results were displayed in an output pane showing you the file and the line number where the match was found. Double-clicking on a result opens the script and jumps to that line. That functionality remains in PrimalScript 2007.
In PrimalScript 2007, search results are better organized. Each result can be collapsed which makes multiple search results a bit easier to work with. In earlier versions a new listing was displayed every time a match was made. If a file had 3 matching occurrences, then it would be listed 3 times. Now, PrimalScript only lists the file once but tells you how many matches were found. You can expand the file entry to see each matching line. And as before, double-clicking on an entry will open the file and jump to that line.
Also new, is that every time you open a file, the matched line will display an indicator showing that you’ve opened that file. This is especially handy when you have a lot of scripts returned. The indicator helps you remember which ones you’ve already looked at.
PrimalScript still supports case-sensitive and regular expression searches as well. If you have a large script library, being able to find code snippets in your own work quickly and easily should be a real benefit.
