Typing into the find bar shows live results — every match is highlighted in the buffer and an inline counter shows N of M.

Scope

Find searches the focused pane only:

  • Terminal pane: visible viewport + full scrollback.
  • File pane: full file.
  • Folder pane: file names only (not contents).

For searching across all tabs, see Global Search below.

Case sensitivity and regex

The find bar has two toggles:

  • Aa — case sensitive.
  • .* — interpret pattern as a regular expression (Rust regex syntax).

Default: case-insensitive literal.

Find in all tabs

⇧⌘F opens Global Search — runs across every open tab's scrollback and displays results in a dedicated tab. Click a result to jump to that tab and position.
