+ | ======Synopsis:====== | ||
+ | [[window]] search_back "[<regex>]" | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Description:====== | ||
+ | This operation moves the scrollback view backwards (older) so the top of | ||
+ | the window is the next older line that matches the regex <regex>. If | ||
+ | there are no matches going backwards, it will beep. If you omit <regex> | ||
+ | it will re-use the last <regex> you provided to either search_back or | ||
+ | search_forward. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This operation may put you in scrollback view, which means you need to | ||
+ | use [[window scroll_end]] to go back to the normal scrolling view. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can read the [[window]] help file for more information about views. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Examples:====== | ||
+ | /WINDOW SEARCH_BACK "boo.*ya!" | ||
+ | /WINDOW SEARCH_BACK (to repeat the search) | ||
+ | /WINDOW SCROLL_END (when you are done) | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======History:====== | ||
+ | This operation first appeared in EPIC4-1.1.8 | ||
