Right-click folder/Open with/Search for files. Fine. But what is the syntax for file name searching? When I to search for, say, "agile" in a file title, I must put "*agile*". That works. But say I want to search for "agile software"? I've tried everything I can thing of, but no joy. It would help to know the syntax! Interestingly, "*agile*s*" will throw out all as you would expect, but add the o, "*agile*so*" and it finds nothing. I'vve tried regex - why can't it use regex? - but that doesn't work either. Worse to come: you can't sort the results. -- Best, Marc </blockquote></div> I found the following in Help manual: <blockquote style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;" class="gmail_quote">Regular expression If you have installed the KRegExpEditor tool from the kdeutils package, you will have this additional option. Enabling it will allow you to search for a regexp 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 Edit Regular Expression to open KRegExpEditor. This tool allows you to construct your set of conditions graphically, and then generates the expression for you. KRegExpEditor is a very useful tool, and can be used from within many KDE applications other than KFind. You can find more information from within its own help file.</blockquote><div> I install kdeutils with apt-get but I don't have any Regular Expresion check box nor somethink like :-( Arnaud. </div>
