====== Searching Texts ====== Since JSesh version 7.2, it's possible to search in JSesh document (it was about time!). It's possible to search either in the //current// document or in all the JSesh documents contained in a given folder. ===== Searching in the current document ===== To Search in the current document, you can use the menu entries: - **Edit/Find** to open the "Find" dialog - **Edit/Find Next** to search for the next occurrence of a search. {{ :doc:en:finddialog.png?nolink&500 | The search dialog}} You then need to describe what you want to search. JSesh is quite powerful here. You can both search for hieroglyphic and non-hieroglyphic text. By default, the search will look for corresponding //sequences// of signs, regardless of their layout. If you want to search for a specific layout, check the "Whole Quadrant Match" box. ===== Searching for Hieroglyphic Text ===== Searching for hieroglyphic text can be quite simple. Type the text you are looking for in the search field (see picture below), and press the "search" button. {{ :doc:en:finddialog1.png?nolink |Simple search}} By default, the search will look for //sequences// of signs, regardless of their layout. If you want to search for a specific layout, check the **Whole Quadrant Match** box. ===== Advanced Search for Hieroglyphic Text ===== You will notice a number buttons below the text field. They allow you to include more variability in the text you are looking for. ==== The "*" wildcard ==== The "*" button allows you to search for sequences of non-strictly consecutive signs. For instance, ๐“น"*"๐“ will search for sequences of signs containing ๐“น, then possibly a number of other signs, then ๐“.
