Find

Select the Find option to locate text (or any other characters) from the scrollback buffer. Regular expressions can be used to select characters matching a specific pattern.

Figure : The Find dialog helps you to locate text from the scrollback buffer.

  • Find what

    Type in the characters that you want to search for in the Find what field. If you want to use regular expressions to define the search term, select the Regular expression option, or select a ready defined regular expression by clicking the ellipsis button (...) on the right hand side of the Find what field.

  • ...

    Click the ellipsis button (...) to select from a ready list regular expressions. Using this option will turn on the Regular expression option.

    The following regular expression types can be selected:

    • Any Character

    • Character in Range

    • Character not in Range

    • Beginning of Line

    • End of Line

    • Or

    • 0 or More Matches

    • 1 or More Matches

    • Optional Match

    • Match exactly n times

    • Match n or more times

    • Match at most n times

    • Match no less than n times and no more than m times

  • Match whole word only

    Select the Match whole word only option to limit the search to match only whole words (i.e. so that "wave" would not match "waves").

  • Match case

    Select the Match case option to specify that the search result should be case sensitive (i.e. so that "Wave" would not match "wave" or "waVe").

  • Regular expression

    Select the Regular expression option to specify the search term using regular expressions. This option is automatically selected if you click the ellipsis button (...) on the right hand side of the Find what field.

  • Direction

    Use the Direction option to specify whether the search should start upwards on downwards from the present position in the scrollback buffer.

    The direction of the search is relative to the last match made in the current search. If there have been no previous matches, Up will search from the bottom of the buffer upwards, and Down will search downwards from the very beginning of the buffer.

    • Up

      The Up option specifies that the search should start backwards from the present position.

    • Down

      The Down option specifies that the search should start forward from the present position.

  • Find Next

    Click the Find Next button to find the next match for the search term. Note that the direction where the search will continue is defined by the Direction option.

  • Cancel

    Click the Cancel button to close the Find dialog.
