Re: Filter selection question, was rpg400-l:Naming Global Variables

Type
  variable|BEGSR|ENDSR
in the "Find" field for the Find/Replace dialog, ensure "Regular expression" is checked, and press the "All" button.

This got me thinking - I know that if I check the 'restrict to columns' box in the Find/Replace dialogue it affects the Filter Selection (try it with 'D' in column 6 ... you'll find you get only D-specs, not all lines that contain a 'd' or 'D'). However, I don't see a way to filter based on the find string. What I'd like to do is put the regular expression "(variable | BEGSR | ENDSR)" (quotes not part of expression), then be able to filter on that expression so that I get something like: 

D  variable
         variable = value
C  mySR        BEGSR
         variable = value2
C mySR2      BEGSR
         clear variable
and so on. Makes it easy to see which subroutines modify a global variable. 

Does anyone have a way of doing this?  Do you like the idea?
