Re: Possible bug with text search range

Hello,

Here is a strip down version of your patch that is easier to understand.
It look like the text search ignore the range in some situation.

Cheers

The attached patch should hopefully be self-explanatory: I am using [text search] to locate repeated instances of the same cc number and update them if present, or insert as a new line if not. I first specify the range using standardised messages. I get strange behaviour depending at which point in the sequence I start, with [text search] returning results outside the requested range on some occasions. Perhaps this is better off on github but I'm not totally familiar with it and thought I'd try here first.
