Search for hi-lited word without openig the search dialog box?

Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 14 July, 2005 - 16:41

Is there a simple way to search for a hi-lited string without opening the search dialog box or search bar? I.e. I'd like to hi-lite a string and with a single button press have Jedit find the next occurance of that string.

Thanks!

Try the following macro: If you have a selection, it will search forward for that, otherwise it selects and searches based on what is considered a word in the current buffer.

findNextOccurance(View view)
{
        String word = null;
        Selection[] selection = view.getTextArea().getSelection();
        if(selection.length == 0)
                view.getTextArea().selectWord();
        if(selection.length <= 1)
        {
                String word = view.getTextArea().getSelectedText();
                SearchAndReplace.setSearchString(word);
                SearchAndReplace.setAutoWrapAround(true);
                SearchAndReplace.setReverseSearch(false);
                SearchAndReplace.setIgnoreCase(false);
                SearchAndReplace.setRegexp(false);
                SearchAndReplace.setSearchFileSet(new CurrentBufferSet());
                SearchAndReplace.find(view);
        }
        else
                Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().beep();

}

findNextOccurance(view);

This is my version, surely less efficient than Ollie's Smiling

//Macro Starts here
//Get the selection from the textArea

String searchString = textArea.getSelectedText() != null ? textArea.getSelectedText() : SearchAndReplace.getSearchString();

SearchAndReplace.setSearchString(searchString);
if(!SearchAndReplace.find(view, buffer, textArea.getCaretPosition())) {
//Not found. Try searching from top
SearchAndReplace.find(view, buffer, 0);
}
//Macro ends here
