FIND SELECTED Searches for the currently selected text, rather than for a typed string. This is useful to find a mixed-case occurrence (such as a book title or a person's name) without having to type the string exactly. Steps: 1. Select the text you want to find (see help on SELECT). The selection can be in EVE or in another DECwindows application running concurrently, but the selection cannot cross lines. 2. Use the FIND SELECTED command. Usage notes: o If there is no occurrence in the current direction, EVE automatically searches in the other direction. If there is an occurrence in that direction, EVE asks if you want to go there---press RETURN for Yes, or type No and press RETURN. o If an occurrence is found, EVE puts the cursor at the start of the found text and highlights the found text in bold video. The selection is canceled. o To edit the found text, use a command or key that works on a range or box, such as COPY, BOX CUT, FILL, REMOVE, or UPPERCASE. If SET BOX SELECT is in effect, an editing operation on the found range uses the start and end of the range as diagonally opposite corners of a box--- see help on Ranges And Boxes. o To cancel the highlighting, move the cursor out of the found range or use RESET. To find another occurrence of the same string, use FIND NEXT or press the FIND key twice. o If there is a found range and no selection, FIND SELECTED is the same as FIND NEXT. o In typing the FIND command, if you want to search for the word "selected," put it in quotes or let EVE prompt you for the search string.
