It would be better to have a separate Find/Replace dialog box like
most IDE's I've used IMO.
I NEVER use the find+replace function in the Script Editor, it's way
too dangerous in other ways too. For instance the "whole words"
option doesn't work right, or works oddly in some situations.
I usually copy the whole script into a CodeWarrior window and do the
Find/Replace and then copy back.
All the Best
