[Summary] Find & Replace Enhancement

DutchPete commented 5 years ago

When a Search box is opened ( CTRL+F or CTRL+Shift+F ):

how many search terms can I put in there?
if I put "apples" "pears", does it search for apples AND pears in the text, or for apples OR pears?
if the answer to the previous question is AND, how do I do an OR search? And vice versa.
can I do fuzzy search?
can I use regular expressions?
if a term to be searched is placed between " ", does that mean anything?

Find should ignore markup in WYSIWYG mode #3260

When in WYSIWYG mode, and given the text:

`Find` should ignore markup in [WYSIWYG](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG)
mode.

Some people like Typora's *Hybrid* mode. Some people dream of an editor
with a true *WYSIWYG* mode. Typora could make everyone happy with a
simple `Display markup under cursor` switch (issue #1317). 😉

Find "WYSIWYG mode" should match two items.

In other words, Find should operate on the rendered text, not the underlying "source code". This is how nearly all rich text editors work.

When in source code mode, Find should continue to behave as it does now: it should search the source code, which of course includes markup.

@abnerlee Please don't make this an "search option" as you mentioned in your comment when you closed #3260. That just adds complexity. Far more simple and intuitive:

in WYSIWYG mode, Find searches the rendered text.
in source code mode, Find searches the source code, which of course includes markup.

It really would be awesome to have regex search.

I'd agree here.
