Search & Replace
----------------
The document editor has a search and replace bar that can be activated with :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`F` for
search mode or :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`H` for search/replace mode.
Pressing :kbd:`Return` while in the search box will search for the next occurrence of the word, and
:kbd:`Shift`:kbd:`Return` for the previous. Pressing :kbd:`Return` in the replace box, will replace
the highlighted text and move to the next word.
There are a number of settings for the search bar available as toggle switches above the search
box. They allows you to search for, in order:,: matched case only, whole word results only, search
using regular expressions, loop search when reaching the end of the document, and move to the next
document when reaching the end. There is also a switch that will try to match the case of the word
when the replacement is made. That is, it will try to keep the word upper, lower, or capitalised to
match the word being replaced.
The regular expression search is somewhat dependant on which version of Qt your system has. If you
have Qt 5.13 or higher, there is better support for unicode symbols in the search.
