- Information on searching
- ------------------------
-
- SiteMaster's search capabilities (both for links and across whole files)
- are very powerful, but is important to understand how the wildcard system
- works in order to use the facilities properly.
-
- If you do not specify any wildcards (and don't tick the Wildcard box),
- SiteMaster will try and match the string entered to the whole of the
- link. With files, the program will automatically add wildcards at the
- start and end, as it is unlikely that you will want to enter the whole
- of the file's content, which is what would happen otherwise. If you
- do wish to do this, simply turn on wildcards, but don't use them -
- SiteMaster will not try and intelligently add wildcards at the start
- and end.
-
- Thus, to find the occurance of the word "click", you would enter
- \*click\* as your search string. The window contains several other
- wildcards which will be helpful in extending your searches.
-
-
- Information on replacing
- ------------------------
-
- When replacing two other Wildcards will be active \0 and \1. These
- correspond to the test preceeding the found string, and the text following
- it. So, to replace the word "click" as above, we might replace with
- "\0click firmly\1".
-
- You can select a number of entries to replace by using the right mouse
- button. You can also use the menu to view the file or edit it in
- HTMLEdit etc.
