I would really like to edit all of my sketches in Arduino. There is one major feature, that I miss, when using the built-in editor: hilite all occurences, of the text I just selected.

It doesn't need to be just variables, that are hilited - it can be just anything (even comments) that have the same chars in it.

Even nearly all modern editors offer this feature, I like BB Edit on Mac most, because it hilites every occurence.

Here are 2 examples:

  1. I selected the variable "hours" in the last line:
    Bildschirmfoto 2019-04-05 um 21 01 12
  2. I selected the string "print" in the last line:
    Bildschirmfoto 2019-04-05 um 21 14 14

Looks similar to this bobbylight/RSyntaxTextArea#88 . A possible implementation is here too #8012 (for find/replace functionality only though)
