Searching directories and files

You have the possibility of searching in the Program Manager for certain directories and files.
Note
Search with place holders
The following place holders simplify the search:
● "*": Replaces any character string
● "?": Replaces any character
If you use place holders, only directories and files are found that correspond exactly to the
search pattern.
Without place holders, directories and files are found that contain the search pattern at an
arbitrary position.
Search strategy
The search is made in all of the selected directories and their subdirectories.
If the cursor is positioned on a file, then a search is made from the higher-level directory.
Note
Searching in opened directories
Open the closed directories for a successful search.
