Padre::Search - The Padre Search API

  # Create the search object
  my $search = Padre::Search->new(
      find_term => 'foo',
  );

  # Execute the search on the current editor
  $search->search_next(Padre::Current->editor);

This is the Padre Search API. It allows the creation of abstract search object that can independently search and/or replace in an editor object.

  my ($first_char, $last_char, @all) = $search->matches(
      $search_text,
      $search_regexp,
      $
Parameters:

* The text in which we need to search

* The regular expression

* The offset within the text where we the last match started so the next forward match must start after this.

* The offset within the text where we the last match ended so the next backward match must end before this.

* backward bit (1 = search backward, 0 = search forward)
