Dominik,

Thanks again!

I've done/am doing some of that--I see some of the useful functions I need 
(and some not as useful, imho)...

I was looking for a way (from dcop) (and for now, in kate 2.2 (kde 
3.2/Mandrake 10)), to search within a selection.  The closest thing I found 
so far is the function findStringAt which I can use to start a search at the 
beginning of a selection, then, on success, check to see if the match 
occurred within the selection.  Is there a better way?

BTW, if the answer is obvious (or somewhat obvious ;-) in the the link you 
provide below, no need to reply, I'm sure I'll find it.

And thanks for this!
