<p>You can also use [text search], although t's not so easy to find more than the first instance. If you don't mind taking a extra step, you could give each line a third term, which is the line number. Then you can use the "> 3" argument for [text search] to
find matches s <br>

<div class="PlainText">Hello,<br>
<br>
I need to find every lines of a textfile containing a word.<br>
The textfile has 2.539.592 lines.<br>
Now, i am using [msgfile] from zexy because i can find a line, skip a<br>
line and find again ... until the end of the textfile.<br>
But, i am wondering if there is an other object (in an other library)<br>
faster, specialized in this work ?<br>
Thanx.<br>
