Hmmm ... I get the help for the findText* command.  I'm at 7.0.0.4, XP 
SP3.  I suspect that Ctrl-F is still just a frontend to the findText 
command at 7.0.0.8, but I can't confirm.

If you eventually learn differently, please let me know.  I'd love to 
have that functionality!

I think you might be able to make it work by operating directly on the 
cached files in your workspace using some text editor with more complete 
regex support.

This link likely won't work directly.  Use F1 in the LPEX editor to 
launch a web browser, then use the http://127.0.0.1:xxxxx/ part and tack 
on the rest.
