Similar to what you guys did for scripts, could this functionality be enabled in notecards? The majority of SL users use notecards rather than scripts, and currently finding something in a notecard involves cutting and pasting it into an external editor and doing a find.

Good editing functionality in notecards would be great for literate SL'ers.

There is a base element for entering multi-line text in a big box in SL - the texteditor. The search and replace features were added to this box. This means that at it's core notecards have access to this feature. However the actual search window, menu items etc were coded specifically for the script window. Fixing that is on my list, which includes adding it to notecards. I don't have an ETA, I have a couple other really BIG projects on my plate right now and the script search & replace was a side project. I hope I can find time to sneak it in Soon(tm), but no promises. Won't be the next few weeks or releases for sure, sorry.
