Text Hawk Text Editor gives you the ability to search for text within the active document. Type a search term into the "What" box and click Find to determine if it exists in the active document. If the search term exists Text Hawk will highlight it for you, and you may then press the F3 key to locate additional occurrences of the search term in the active document.
Mark All - The Mark All button sets a bookmark in the active document for each occurrence of the search text. (NOTE: The Show Left Margin option must be enabled for the bookmarks to be visible.)
