How to make the advanced search to match the exact lines

[luke32]

Hello, How to make the advanced search to match the exact lines

Now I feed the alpha with txt file and when there is a line such as

***_***_***-***
It will show me results are not named *** but will show me folders

aaa_bbb_ccc-ddd

If there is no *** please I need to void it from result if not exist.

Thank you.

Not clear?

Are you search the content within a file
Or are you searching file names
(in the format of, ***_***_***-***)?

If you're wanting content, you might want something like,

regex:content:"..._..._...-..."

(directly).
(Not sure offhand what you would put in Advanced Search?)

Code: Select all

ext:txt   nowildcards:content:***_***_***-***

Sorry my ENglish not very good , If I have a text with 100 line and there is one line named

***_***-*** this is an exact line it was in the txt but i didnt mean to put it there it was just a bulk search

now if there is no result named *** why it should me just regular folder names aaa_vvv-ddd

anyone understand now ?

I want to get exact result not a close or partial search if using txt file

[luke32]

let me try one more time , If txt file have one line named

***_***_***-****

I can see result without the * like

aaa_sss_ddd-bxy and so on

if there is no * I should not have search result

FINAL request is , If there is one line with 0*** and there is no folders or file names 0*** i should never get result to appear on search result

hope this time its more clear

Everything will treat * as a wildcard in file lists.

* = match any character any number of times.

Everything 1.5.0.1399a adds nowildcards: modifier support to includefilelist:

To search for files in your filelist and add the nowildcards: modifier:

• In Everything, right-click the search box and click Advanced Search....
• Scroll down to the bottom and to the right of Search for a list of filenames, click Browse....
• Select your file list and click OK.
• Click OK.
• Your search should now look something like:
  
  includefilelist:"C:\filelists\myfilelist.txt"
  
  (where C:\filelists\myfilelist.txt is your filelist filename)
• prefix
  includefilelist:
  with
  nowildcards:
  
  For example:
  
  nowildcards:includefilelist:"C:\filelists\myfilelist.txt"

nowildcards:
