Text Find function

Perhaps an option should be added to the find function to search forward or backward, if that would allow viewing the first reference (backward search) of an item or character's name in a book. It would seem the need to view first references would be common, since it is the first reference to anything in a book where an introductory/full description is made of it. It's a common thing to forget the background/description of a referenced item, and to want to go back and refresh your memory of it.

It's a good point - I can see that, even if Freda can't display every occurrence of the search item (because there are too many), it would be good to prioritise including the first occurrences of the item in the text.  I will look into this, for the next release.
