Thanks, it has some shortcomings, not easy to fix, but generally useful 
and at least the button and text field do something meaningful.
We copied the name and behavior from OpenStep after Lars checked it
- no search inside legends, notes and similar - they are attachments in 
the text furthermore rendered as images, but even if not, attachments 
would be skipped
- search only in the current loaded text in the textview. If there are 
separate sections coming from multiple files, only the current is 
searched (HelpViewer has lazy loading)

yes, it is a regression, a connection broke during edit, I don't know 
why. Fixed it in gorm and now works fine: It contains path of the 
document. Multiple documents with the same name can be open from 
different paths too.
The naming is a little bit different than on the Mac, but it is all 
coming from GNUstep AppKit now, so we are as good or bad as any other 
doc based application
