search directories for find-in-files

I have just started using Komodo, and every day become more impressed!

I use find-in-files a lot, on files located throughout the file system. Something I really need is for the find-in-files target directory to default to the directory of the "current" file (the one in the tab with the focus). I can't find anyway to set that option. Is there a way to do this in Komodo?

Thanks,

Hi John,

I'm pretty sure that if you leave the Directories textbox empty, then that will be the default behaviour (searches in the directory of the current editor file).

You can also use the ".\" target directory to explicitly specify the directory of the current editor file.

Cheers,
Todd
