Description

This extension enables you to use regular expressions to find texts.
The patterns you can use are Javascript RegExp Object's regular expressions.

1. Click the address bar or hit [Ctrl + L] to focus.
2. Enter fr and hit [Tab] to initiate finding.
3. Enter a pattern and hit [Enter] to complete and add the pattern to the find history.

If a pattern contains one or more uppercase characters, the find will be case-sensitive.
If you want to do a case-sensitive find with all lowercase characters, append one slash to the pattern (e.g., wow/).
If you want to do a find that is not case-sensitive with all lowercase characters and ends with a slash, escape the last slash (e.g., wow\/).

The followings are enabled if one or more texts are matched.
4a. Click the Find RegExp's page action button in the address bar to show the popup.
5a. Click the left arrow or right arrow button to jump to a previous or next match. Alternatively, you can hit [Enter] to jump if the button has a focus. You can move the focus by clicking a button or hitting [Tab].
6a. Click the x button to clear matches.

4b. Click somewhere on the page to move focus there.
5b. Hit [Ctrl + .] to jump to a next match, or [Ctrl + ,] for a previous match.

You can right-click on the matches to select them before a context menu appears.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
