I'll think about it, but I am not sure about this feature...

If implemented correctly, using SetSelectionBounds after SearchText will be

efficient (and I think it will not cause flicker). Do not forget to call

Invalidate after SetSelectionBounds.

By the way, there is an example for applying hypertext style to URLs in

Demos\Delphi\Assorted\URLs\

This example selects URLs quite smart (although it will not find http:// at

the middle of word, and I think it should not).

It works much faster than selecting+applying style (actually, it uses the

fastest method for this task).

And it is flexible because it allows to apply different hypertext styles,

preserving text formatting.
