I have found a seemingly important case where the LPEX editor "find"
(Ctrl+F) cannot find certain text if the input string contains any trailing
spaces.  It just skips over them.  I have done many tests in WDSC 6.0.1.1
on ILE RPG and CL members and I think I have limited it to the following
case:
The text occurs where there is no more text present on the line and where
there is no "=" sign present on the line.  It has to be "=", not "<", ">",
etc.  For ILE RPG, comments starting in column 81 don't matter.

For example, if you have any subroutines, search for "begsr ".   If you
have a select/endsl, search for "select ", "endsl " and you will see what I
mean.  Just type the text to search for and add a space.
This seems to be true for CL but I haven't done as many tests in CL as ILE
RPG.

This seems like a problem.  Anyone know of a fix?
