When typing ^W foofoora <Enter>, the statusbar says [ "foofoora" not found ].  When doing ^R foofoora <Enter>, it will say exactly the same thing.  The only difference is that the second case will beep.

It would be better if the messages in these two cases would differ, just like in Pico, where in the second case the word File is included before the name.

(I've realized this because once I had somehow mistakenly typed ^W instead of ^R, and it said: not found.  What!?  I checked, the file was there, why didn't it find it...)

(To be entirely unambiguous, the ^W case should include the word String at the start of the message, but we'll leave that for now.)
