 * Hi,
 * Using your plugin for adding some PHP scripts and works great. However, while
   coding, the search CTRL+F highlights all instances of the needle but does not
   progress to show next string found. Minor inconvenience but searching large amounts
   of code is rather inconvenient, since the only way to achieve this would be ESC
   + CTRL+F again to advance. Am I missing something with the controls?
 * Thanks.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Feditor-code-search%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@tracemyip](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tracemyip/),
 * You can see a full list of shortcuts by hovering over the (?) icon:

 * Once you’ve started searching with `Ctrl+F`, you can move between individual 
   matches with `Ctrl+G` and `Ctrl+Shift+G`.
