A tool to find text in LCB files of widgets

I learned a lot about LCB when looking at existing code. That is why I made a stack that searches all LCB files it finds that come with your currently used version of Livecode (in the root folder of Livecode) and in the extension folder of your "My Livecode" folder.
Just type in any search term. If your search field is empty it will list all handlers of all available LCB files.
Clicking on a line of the search result will open the LCB file in the Script Editor at that line.

Useful for e.g. how do people handle a "timer"; what are the incoming parameters of "OnMouseScroll" (the dictionary does not know this). Etc.

Maybe this is useful for some.

Kind regards
Bernd
