Comment (by humdinger):
Still can't reproduce...
Things to consider: when opening a prestine text file (i.e. one that was
never opened in StyledEdit) like a fresh syslog, StyledEdit sets the
cursor at the end of the file. Therefore, searching without wrap-around
won't find anything.[[BR]]
It could be argued that setting the cursor to the top of the file would be
better for that reason.
If you're unsure where the cursor position is in your file before starting
your search, press a key to jump the view to the cursor.
You may want to remove the be:caret_position attribute of the text file or
play with its value if you keep experimenting (either from Terminal or
DiskProbe). I tried entering a value bigger than the file to see how
StyledEdit reacts. It correctly sets the cursor to the end of the file. So
that can't be your issue either...
