  <title>Search for text</title>

  
You can search text in the <app>Terminal</app> output:

  <steps>

    <item>

      
Select <guiseq><gui style="menu">Search</gui>

      <gui style="menuitem">Find…</gui></guiseq>.

    </item>

    <item>

      
Type in the search keyword and press <key>Enter</key> to search

      backwards. Alternatively, click on the arrows according to the desired

      search direction.

    </item>

  </steps>

  
You can search using the following options to narrow down your

  results:

  <terms>

    <item>

      <title><gui style="checkbox">Match case</gui></title>

      
Make the search case sensitive: this restricts results to only those

      that match the case of your search keyword.

    </item>

    <item>

      <title><gui style="checkbox">Match entire word only</gui></title>

      
<app>Terminal</app> will look for the entire keyword and will ignore

      results that partially match your search keyword. For example, if

      you have searched for “cat”, <app>Terminal</app> will show only

      results that match this keyword exactly and omit results such as

      “bobcat”.

    </item>

    <item>

      <title><gui style="checkbox">Match as regular expression</gui></title>

      
You can use regular expression patterns, also known as regex

      patterns, in your search keywords. <app>Terminal</app> will display

      the results that match these search terms.

    </item>

    <item>

      <title><gui style="checkbox">Wrap around</gui></title>

      
<app>Terminal</app> searches from your current location in the

      scrollback to the end of available terminal output and then restarts the

      search.

    </item>

  </terms>

  <note style="tip">

    
If you expect to work with a lot of <app>Terminal</app> output, increase

    the <link xref="pref-scrolling#lines">scrollback lines</link> to

    a higher limit to allow <app>Terminal</app> to search further back.
