Added search text function when viewing a text file

I don't see this anywhere. Do markdown files (.md) count as text files?

[ccbogel]

Yes. This is activated with the right-click menu. I will fix that right-click menu issue and upload new binaries for th3 3.0 release. regards CC

Ideally, qc would open any text file as text. Or the users could specify in Settings the file extensions they want for text. There are too many potential and unpredictable extensions.
