{find+} Firefox Add-on: Enhanced Find-in-Page Extension

{find+} is a unique Firefox extension that empowers the classic Find-in-Page tool with several advanced features. This includes support for legal JavaScript regular expressions, a handy find-and-replace function, the ability to copy regex occurrences, store commonly used expressions, and the feature to personalise the extension based on user preference. Despite its powerful functionality, it maintains a user-friendly design akin to the native Find-in-Page tool. Specifically designed for developers, it is a time-saver in tasks like navigating through extensive stack traces or large text files.

I don't expect much more than find by regex... and it does (I just started using it). And since it does this simple thing i give it 5 stars because if there wasn't this I had to code a such extention by my self! GOOD JOB! So bad firefox don't have this out of the box.
