An example of this could include searching for files of a particular type or with certain letters in the filename. You can load this utility by clicking on <guimenuitem>Find Files</guimenuitem>. This will launch &rekonq;. </para> </sect1> </chapter> <!-- ================== CHAPTER ================== --> <chapter id="kfind"> <title>Finding Files</title> <sect1 id="name-tab"> <title>The Name/Location Tab</title> <para> When starting &rekonq;, you will see a quite simple window. Type in the name of the file you are searching in the text box labeled <guilabel>Named:</guilabel>. Choose a folder where you want to search by typing it in the field <guilabel>Look in:</guilabel> or by clicking <guibutton>Browse...</guibutton> and press <keycap>Enter</keycap> or click <guibutton>Find</guibutton>. If <guilabel>Include subfolders</guilabel> is checked all subfolders starting from your chosen folder will be searched too. The results will be displayed in the box below. </para> <para> You can use the following wildcards: </para> <variablelist> <varlistentry> <term>The Asterisk <quote><keycap>*</keycap></quote></term> <listitem> <para> The asterisk stands for any number of missing characters (even zero), that means ⪚ searching for <userinput>marc*</userinput> may find the files <filename>marc</filename>, <filename>marc.png</filename> and <filename> marc_must_not_read_this.kwd</filename>. <userinput>mar*.kwd</userinput> may find <filename>marketplace.kwd</filename> and <filename>marc_must_not_read_this.kwd</filename>. </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term>The Question Mark <quote><keycap>?</keycap></quote></term> <listitem> <para> In contrast to the asterisk, the question mark stands for exactly one character, so <userinput>mar?</userinput> will find <filename>marc</filename>, but <userinput>marc?</userinput> will not find anything, as our files are called <filename>marc</filename> and <filename>marc.png</filename>. You can put as many question marks in the term as you want, it will find exactly that number of characters. </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> <para> Of course you can combine those two wildcard symbols in a search term. </para> </sect1> <sect1 id="kfind-date-range"> <title>The Contents Tab</title> <variablelist> <varlistentry> <term><guilabel>File type</guilabel></term> <listitem> <para> Here you can specify the type of file you are searching for. </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term><guilabel>Containing text</guilabel></term> <listitem> <para> Type in the word or phrase the files you are searching for must contain. Note: If you do this in a large folder or checked <guilabel>Include subfolders</guilabel> in the <guilabel>Name/Location</guilabel> tab, this may take a long time. </para> <note> <para>This option will <emphasis>not</emphasis> work for all files listed under <guilabel>File type</guilabel>.

Enabling it will allow you to search for a <firstterm>regexp</firstterm> or regular expression. A regexp is a way to specify conditions for your search, and they can be very complex, and equally they can be very powerful. If you are unfamiliar with regular expressions, you can choose <guilabel>Edit Regular Expression</guilabel> to open &kregexpeditor;. This tool allows you to construct your set of conditions graphically, and then generates the expression for you.</para> <para>&kregexpeditor; is a very useful tool, and can be used from within many &kde; applications other than &rekonq;.
