    Just a thought on the boolean search engine.

    If you tag a bunch of bases and run a CTL+F search there seems to be no way
    to exit from the search. I just ran a test across 50+ tagged bases for a keyword and pressing ESC only dropped me out of the base displaying search results and then started the search again.

    I think there needs to be a way to retain that search across multiple tagged bases but also for the user to exit out of the process.

    Best, Paul

    Yes that doesn't seem right. I will have to make ESC cancel the search and if you use the Goto next base, or Ignore messages or just read past the final message then it will continue the search.

    I'll try to get that fixed up and a new pre-alpha out.

    Yep agreed that's expected behaviour I'd say.

    I'll have this done fo the next prealpha!
