Find and replace

Inside Skink: Ctrl+E, then help find.

Ctrl+F opens the find bar. It searches as you type, marks every match and shows "N of M".

| Key | Does | |---|---| | Enter | keep the match | | Esc | back to where you were | | Ctrl+N / Ctrl+P | next / previous match | | Alt+R | regex .* | | Alt+C | case-sensitive Aa (default: lowercase matches any case) | | Alt+W | whole word \b | | Alt+S | only inside the selection [sel] | | Tab | to "Replace with"; Enter there replaces every match | | Ctrl+L | go to line |

Replacing is one undo step. In regex mode $1 and ${name} insert capture groups. A selection over several lines starts the bar in [sel] mode.

From the command line:

:replace FIND WITH :replace "two words" "other words"

Search across files is on [Search the project](search).
