There are some bugs in search area:

  1. Case sensitive/insensitive search option can be changed just once, then the button remains inactive
  2. Regular expression search option does not work correctly, it can be activated just once, then the button remains inactive. Sometimes Ecrire becomes frozen after trying to use this option.
  3. Whole word search option does not work correctly, it can be activated just once, then the button remains inactive
  4. It would be nice to memorize at least the last searched text during a session

All the options have the same problem - looking on the interface it is not evident when the option is active and when it is inactive.

I will have to redo aspects of the UI. EFL lacks toggle buttons; aside from the slider and check box. I was attempting to use buttons as a toggle. Ideally, EFL supports buttons that can be pressed once depressed, like power buttons on many electronic devices and otherwise. You press the button to turn on power, and again, to turn off power. The button stays depressed while activated. I will need to switch to a different widget and change the look of the search interface.

A search history, at least temporary for the session, is not a bad idea. I will look into implementing such time permitting, but it will likely not be anytime soon.
