Find but exclude comments

#1

Are there any other people thinking, that this feature would be extremely usefull?
Imagine a new check button in the find field that toggles the option to exclude comment lines when searching for a string.
Would that be cool?

I need to search in multiple files. Besides, having a UI solution is much nices than a special command and a key combination. I also want to combine the seach option with all other option in the find functionality. This should be standard in ST3 and any other text editor.

I don’t find that plugin very useful, it misses a lot of the search options and can’t search in multiple files. This should be a trivial implementation.
