Turn this application into a minature search engine #4

This project has potential to be used for more than just a small demo. Add a large textarea to the project, re-arrange the GUI, strip the buttons, and then make this application into a text searcher. Split the massive text piece (could be thousands of words) into the text area, and then be able to search and autocomplete for words inside of the text you paste.

When you are searching for a word the text area field should jump to the first instance of that word found. In addition there should be some navigating arrows next to the search box to go to the previous and next instances of the word found.

Please complete https://github.com/UCSB-CS56-Projects/cs56-tutorials-autocomplete/issues/3 first if you decide to take this issue.

~Estimated 400 points

There is a bonus to this issue if you decide to take it on as well. For an extra 100 points make the search/auto completing algorithm scan for multiple words as well. For instance, if I input Once upon a time the algorithm you develop should be able to find the series of keywords that i am entering in order.

If you choose not to take on this bonus piece to this issue please inform the moderator so that a new issue can be opened.
