                     18: Find Panel...          Brings up the Find panel, makes it the key window, and selects everything in its Find field so that the user can easily enter new text.  If the panel is already on-screen, the command brings it to the front, makes it the key window, and selects the Find field.\

                     20: Find Next      Searches forwards for the next occurrence of the string in the panel's Find field.\

                     22: Find Previous  Searches backwards for the previous occurrence of the string in the panel's Find field.\

                     24: Enter Selection        Enters the current selection into the panel's Find field so that Find Next and Find Previous can search for it.\
