Search box or filter to easily find a substitution in a long list

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, I'd like to ask to add a substitution list organization, like organize by 
word, type, replace word, etc. This way, when someone need to edit a word, it 
would be easily found by it's alphabetical order, or if someone need to find a 
word that is case sensitive, it would only need to click on "differentiate 
uppercase/lowercase" and find it easily, or even adding a search box, that 
would be great for people that have a huge substitution list, like me.  =D

Thanks.

I think the search box is the best option in this case, because the 
substitutions are applied in the order they are stored, and thus changing the 
order can change the result for some substitution lists.

• Changed title: Search box or filter to easily find a substitution in a long list
• Changed state: Accepted
• Added labels: Component-UI, OpSys-All, Priority-Medium
• Removed labels: Priority-High

Yeah, I see it could be a problem. But what if it used some kind of shadow copy 
of the config file? As it is on the antiviruses scanning. That way, the 
original file keeps untouched, while the copy is organized the way the user 
desires.

Regarding the search box, when will it be added?

I can't tell you when it will be added, it depends on the priority if this 
issue and others and my available time, which is not much right now, so I can't 
tell you a date at this moment.

Hi,

Is this project still in development?   Would be great to get a search option.  
I have a long list and need to edit it regularly but it's becoming harder and 
harder because of not having ability to sort or search?

Regards,
Adam

Yes, it's still in development. But, as I told the other user, I can't tell you 
a date when this will be added.

Would really appreciate this feature.  I use big lists and it's becoming 
increasingly harder to find/edit entries  :(

Either way though this addon is awesome and really helps me every single day,  
thanks for such a great addon  :)
