Enable easy variable tracking

In the current version of JMP, in order for a user to view a particular variable, the user needs to use the find dialog. The same is required if the user needs to replace a variable across the entire script. It would be much more smoother experience if when a user selects a variable, all the instances of that variable are automatically highlighted in the script and similarly a suggestion is offered where when the user edits the name of a variable, they are prompted with an inquiry if they would like all instances of the variable to be replaced. This is a feature that is prominently offered in Matlab.

In JMP 19, you will be able to highlight each instance of a currently selected word in the script editor.
