Create a serach index for linqpad queries

I create lots of Linqpad queries. Many times I have a question in my mind while coding. To answer I try something out in LINQPad and save my query somewhere in my directory tree.
Some months later I have the same (or a similar) question but can't find my query because there are lots of them.
I suggest you add a search index. It would make it easier to find old queries just from parts of the filename or query contents.

    Thanks for pointing this out, I was not aware. The go to... function does what I need.
    But I can think that it would be nice improvement if there was a textbox for searching at the top of the query browser for "quick search".

    At some point (it must have changed during v4) the search used to just give you a Linq query that searched your files which you can manipulate to your heart's content. This search is still available at the bottom of the Samples, as "Search samples...", and it still includes the option to generate a query that searches your queries too.

    Nevertheless, the current search is "Go to..." at the top right of My Queries, and it seems rather quick.
