why has this not been tagged as " Component: IDE / Type: Improvement" meanwhile by the developers?

Closing as duplicate of #3727.

per1234: that's weird: a referenced post once opened at 25 Aug 2015, still unresolved, now you close my report/topic although it's still unresolved - why the heck do you close it then?? Instead of spending time on searching so-called duplicates and closing unresolved issues you'd better use your time to resolve them !!

@tofrnr
the issue has been closed as duplicate of #3727, it has no sense to have multiple issue about the same topic. Please note that #3727 is still open.

Instead of spending time on searching so-called duplicates and closing unresolved issues you'd better use your time to resolve them

removing duplicates actually helps a lot to keep the issues tracker clean and to keep the all the informations into a single issue instead of having them scattered around many issues.

is there meanwhile an update about the extra option "search whole words only" ?
without that option even the "replace all" button causes total mess!
