I find it really annoying that going through code looking for instances of a certain word I have to press CTRL + F & ENTER every time. I like the way Notepad++ keeps the window open and you can just press next. Is that not possible in Scite?

Thanks

Nope, not currently coded as such in Scite.
Use the Find&Replace feature instead of the Find-only feature to get the behavior you want.

What would happen if you kissed it goodbye?"

The replace function has exactly what I need. I didn't think to look in the replace tool when I was thinking of repeating a search. I guess there is the F3 shortcut otherwise.

Thanks a lot for you tip. Problem solved!
