How do I use wholefilename: ?
Posted: Thu Mar 07, 2019 10:08 am
I have the latest version of everything.
If I type into the search bar I get a lot of results (134), but I'm after a file exactly named "hosts" (e.g. C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts), so I want to filter this down a bit to save myself some mental effort.
So I try. This results in a blank search result. gives the same result.
If I type I get 134 results again.
However, if I type and press CLTR+B to enable WHOLE WORD mode I get 24 objects, which behaves the way I'd expect to work.
1. How come ww: and CTRL+B differ, given that they both claim to be "whole word" ?
2. How come wholefilename isn't matching my "hosts" file for a search of "hosts"? Infact, "wholefilename: " always seems to return 0 no matter what I type.
Thanks,
If I type
hosts
So I try
wholefilename: hosts
wfn: hosts
If I type
wholeword: hosts
However, if I type
hosts
wholefilename:
