Key bindings for search in the session?

[jayfoad]

You can search in an editor window either by pressing the search button or by binding a keystroke to the SC action.

Searching also works in the session, but since there is no button the only way you can do it is by binding a keystroke to the SC action. I feel this makes the functionality too obscure. Maybe we should provide a default binding for SC, so that you don't have to do any manual configuration in order to be able to search the session?

...and ideally also have a menuitem to trigger this command!

The standard OSX search keystroke cmd+s works out-of-the-box in an edit window and should also work in the session (and everywhere else).

CTRL+F works on Windows and Ubuntu, please could you retry @jayfoad

FYI: Cmd+F now works nicely on my Mac, in session, edit and trace windows.

@flouc001 I can confirm that Ctrl+F lets me search the session on Windows, thanks. I was confused (and still am) by the fact that Preferences/Shortcuts doesn't show any key binding for SC.

@jayfoad it may be the search plugin we use silently setting the key bindings, I will look at showing a default. @JohnScholes thank you for confirmation on mac :)
