I think you didn't understand my suggestion.

Let say my cursor is on $foo in

Code:
var %test = $foo(1,2,3)


If I press Ctrl-F, mIRC will automaticly puts "$foo" in the search box as the default search term. IMO, mIRC should remove the $, as it is not _really_ a part of the identifier. So in my example, if I press Ctrl-F, it should put "foo" in the search box, not "$foo".

Or, if that annoys too much other users, a shortcut to go to the alias definition instead would be great too.
