[Qt-interest] Change default background color for search results (QPlainTextEdit)

[Jaco Naude]

Maybe something like this:

QTextCursor find_cursor = document()->find(search_string,textCursor());
QTextCharFormat format(find_cursor.charFormat());
format.setBackground(QBrush(Qt::green);
find_cursor.mergeCharFormat(format);

I've used something like this to highlight specific words in a class which
inherits QPlainTextEdit.

Hope it helps,
Cheers
