When using the "find" feature, ctrl+f, to find output in Mushclient's buffer, for some reason I am only able to use it once. For example, when searching for a word or phrase, it will go the the first one it finds, but it can't be used again to find the next matching line. It will find the first one it comes to (up or down) and will not go to the next one. Can this be resolved?
Bug in Mushclients "Find" feature

Ctrl+Shift+F doesn't work?
No, it works, but as I said, you can only find one string. If I search for "test" in my output, it'll find it, but it won't find another "test" above that in the output if there is more. If you want to test it, type something twice and search for it twice. It won't scroll through the output, but will only find the first entry it comes to.
Works for me.
"chats" appears many times in my buffer.
Ctrl+F, enter "chats". Finds the first one.
Ctrl+Shift+F, it finds the next one.
Ctrl+Shift+F, finds the next (and on and on).

MUSHclient isn't like a word processor, where it finds from the cursor, because there is no cursor in the output window.
Straight Find (Ctrl+F) will find the first (or last, if you are going backwards) occurrence of the string.
To keep searching, then hit Find Again (Shift+Ctrl+F) and it will locate the next occurrence, in the specified direction.
You can map this to another keystroke. Assuming you have enabled scripting, and Lua scripting is active, entering this command in the command window will make Ctrl+G do a "find again":
/Accelerator ("Ctrl+G", "/DoCommand 'FindAgain' ")
OH! I see. Thanks a lot. That helps. :)
