Search Commands

Search commands are entered into the Command Input field on the Browse panel. The following table describes the Search Commands:

FINDLIM—Limits the FIND command to a specific number of lines.
When the limit is reached, the search is interrupted, and an RFIND command must be issued to resume.

The default value is 5000 lines.
LOCATE llllllll and LP pppppppp—Scrolls to a specific position in the spool file:
- LOCATE positions the display at a specific line.
- LP positions the display at the start of a specific page.
Note: lllllll is the specific line number to scroll to; pppppppp is the specific page number to scroll to.
FIND<'string' x*> <nnn<mmm>> <NEXT> <WORD> <PREV> <FIRST> <LAST> <ALL> <Sxxxxxxxx> <ALLHITS>—Searches the spool file for the specified character string until:
- Requested character string is found
- Bottom of file is reached (forward search)
- Top of file is reached (backward search)
- The search limit is reached
You can use F as an abbreviation for the FIND command.
RFIND and RF—Repeats the find process for a search string previously specified by the FIND command.
The search resumes from the position of the last string found. If the cursor is placed on a line in the data, the search starts from there.

You can use RF as an abbreviation for the RFIND command.
