screen shot

EDIT:

Well after another app restart itbstarted working again. not sure what happened .

[cvp]

@stephen yes, bug....

def setSearchResults_(_self,_sel,_search_results):
	from objc_util import ObjCInstance, ns 

Import * not allowed... ns forgotten
Import in def needed because script executed once but defs can be called later and import of module no more in memory

GitHub corrected

@cvp awesome ty! this module has already helped alot

[cvp]

@stephen Thanks but I'd not be astonished if you meet other bug(sss) 😢

[stephen]

@cvp heads up sems like GitHub update did not take

Eh bugs happen. tells you it is doing somthing 😉

[cvp]

A best idea would be to add a new menu option in the popup menu for searching in sources, without doing that in the help menu.
But I don't know how to do that.
Perhaps @jonB who already did that in the past but also said that it was only for one edited tab.
