how to easilly find desired jquery function in a js file?

examples:

$('.title').on('click', function(){
    do_something();
}

$('.title').on('contextmenu', function(){
    do_something();
}

I have a lot of such functions in a .js file.

Each time I need to edit the function (Notepad++) I need to press Ctrl F and search for title then press Enter several times while it is not found.

Because title and click and contextmenu are used a lot inside other functions.

Supprised but there are no names of jquery functions in the function list. There is only a word - function - totally useless.

I tried Atom and Sublime - the same situation. Pure js functions are there, but jquery functions are missing.

So what is your practice? How do you find desired jq function inside a large js file?

Is there an editor, for Windows, having the names of jq functions on the sidebar?

If not - a potential solution could be a simple plugin for npp which should find the above function directly if title click or title context is typed into the search box.

Is it possible to create that plugin in javascript? If yes - please some help - where to start.

The third solution is a browser-based code editor, but that's probably too complicated fur such a minor task - have a function in a function list.

Any help?
