In CW you could find the first, do whatever editing you wanted to do, and then find the next occurrence whether in that file or another. That came in handy sometimes and I miss it. CW had Find and Find All buttons.

Didn't CW open up every file with a find result in a new window? I seem to remember having to type Apple-S, Apple-W 27 times in a row. Maybe there was a close all. I don't remember for sure. I really haven't used CW much in 5 years or so. I definitely remember that Find and Replace was the one thing I didn't like about CW. I also know it is one of my favorite features of Xcode.

No, it kept all "finds" in the same window.

He's referring to a multi-file search initiated by the Find button instead of the Find All button. In that case CW opened each file containing a hit and selected it. It didn't replace the Find All option, but it was a useful alternative at times.


Although it has separate windows for each different "find" (eg: search for "this" and it has a window with a list of all instances, including an editor that allows you to directly edit; then search for "that" and you'll have a second window with all of the results.)

I, like Larry, greatly prefer the CodeWarrior (which I still use for a couple of projects) find. However, my main beef with the Xcode find is the lack of a "Find All" in a single file, as well as the inability to have each multi-find file search result in a separate window.
