search (and replace) code segments

[TCPlomp]

Currently we can only search and replace specific nodes, it would be beniciiary if we could search and replace for specific code segments.

This would be usefull if we placed some very often used structure in a Sub-VI and want to replace all those instance very quickly.

I am doing this right now for a 'sent event'  piece of code and it's quite a lot of instance (>40) that I have to look up (by a specific node) and select, replace etc.

The search should be intelligent and ignore wire routings, just looking at all of the connected nodes and wires.

This could be quite useful when upgrading old code or when modifying code written by some one who was allergic to subVIs.  (Even some I wrote myself).
