Hi Arthur,

but from another side good the HE has not crashed with such myriad of open files

So...:
- files was open because you have
Mark Search Results in Text checked. To mark matches, files hould be open

But form another side I am not sure, should this be enabled in
Display File Names only mode...
- another thing, I see 1982 occurrences found. Also maybe in this case number of found FILES expected...
- and about
modified state. This is result of encoding change after load. I think Stefan (can not find a post now), ask to place change of the encoding to a undo queue, and as a result modified state also should be changed...
Best regards,
Alex.
