Ctrl+e is in incremental find. It searches while you type. see here http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_IDE_Tools#Incremental_Search >> I think that while Lazarus IDE has many great features, they are not well > > I just think many of those feature are silently added with nobody > knowing.

It's called 'procedure list' and its default key is Alt-G, which does not work on all widgetsets. >> 2) "Find in files", "Messages" and "Code observer" should be merged >> together, >> with interface most resembling "Find in files" > > I can't see how these can be combined.
