Bad parsing?
File Finder, Directory Finder, and Duplicate Finder have these problems when parsing the contents of the "Search in" tab:
1. A line containing only a CRLF is treated as a directory name (except for the last line)
2. A line containing only one or more spaces is treated as a directory name
Such lines generate messages like Directory "" does not exist or Directory " " does not exist ...
Such trailing lines (at least) would best be ignored since they are not visible. Such leading lines are visible, but serve no useful purpose.

Registry Finder has this problem when parsing the contents of the "Search words" tab:
A line containing only a single blank character is treated as a valid search word and generates a list containing 10000s of lines.
Such a line would best be ignored since it is not visible, and can lead to this situation. A line with two or more spaces causes no problem -- apparently there are currently no two space occurrences in my registry.
The same problem exists on the "Ignore words" tab -- this could cause the inadvertant missing of sought registry items.
