Right, you have to actually perform the search in Gambas, which 
is what I was talking about.  All the existing dialogs are 
simply wrapped versions of the standard Qt or KDE dialogs, 
whereas a Find dialog as you describe (which in most apps 
wouldn't even be modal) doesn't exist in standard form in Qt at 
least and therefore would have to be part of a new component.

I really think it's best implemented in Gambas code... once we 
can write our own components using Gambas instead of C I think 
you'll find all this stuff will appear rapidly.  But for now, 
you can steal the FFind.form and FFind.class out of the gambas 
IDE and adapt them to your liking.
