Tk Library Source Code

This code provides to highlight interesting text in the
tkchat message window.

The user interface can be invoked in two ways:
1.) Through the Find entry on the FIle menu.
2.) By entering /find in the message post window.
(command line) The /find command may have an optional
argument, which will then be used as the search string.

To highlight an exact string or regexp pattern, enter
it in "Find text" field.  All matches in the chat
window will be highlighted.  Should the search be a
time consuming one, it will pause when the Find dialog
is closed and resume when it is re-opened.

To remove all highlighting, clear the "Find text" field
in the Find dialog.

Known caveats:

Sub-strings are not highlighted separately from the
rest of the matching text when using regexp
sub-matching. The whole match will be highlighted the
same. This is a limitation of of the [text] -search
command.

This is a duplicate of patch number 654976, was mistakenly created as a new patch instead of simply updating that one. This has been corrected, so I'm closing it.
