When I'm searching something in konsoles history buffer, I often encounter the problem that I do not yet know whether I'm already through all of the history or if konsole already started the search again from the top. The only hint I can get is to look at the scrollbar position - which is not really usable if you have a lot of history lines and the scrollbar just jumps for a few pixels. An option in the find options popup to "not wrap" the search would be great. Reproducible: Always

Git commit f1308b70774a17d3f745d39bbaaec45aeaca00cc by Kurt Hindenburg, on behalf of João Gouveia. Committed on 13/04/2024 at 00:18. Pushed by hindenburg into branch 'master'. Add "No wrap" setting to search options In some scenarios, users don't want to start a search again from the top when they reach the end of the contents being searched. However, if the contents are too large, it can be difficult to notice when such jumping occurs. This commit aims to address this by adding an option that disables the automatic wrapping in searches.
