Analysis of the report by Macecraft

Severity of bug Not a Bug
Comments from developer This is actually by design. Delphi's multi line text editor does support word wrap, but it is implemented in a way that makes it difficult for us: when word wrap occurs, the one long line is treated as two shorter lines.

So for example, should you search with this:
long search word 12345

And it would word wrap to:
long search
word 12345

This would mean, that the tool would not search for "long search word 12345" but instead for two search words "long search" and "word 12345" because of the implementation of the word wrap.

Because the problem originates from Delphi's multi line text box's word wrap implementation, I'm calling this as not a bug.
Bug fixed on n/a
Is this bug fixed in the latest released version? No, because this is not a bug.
