<h2>How to Use File Search</h2>
<p>
Currently, there are 3 categories that you can use to filter and show the directories and files within the images in the current opened case.
<br><br>
The categories are:
<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1. Name <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Search for all files and directory whose name contains the pattern given.<bR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>Note</b>: it doesn't support regular expression and keyword matching.
<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2. Size <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Search for all files and directory whose size matches the pattern given. The pattern can be "equal to", "greater than", and "less than". The unit for the size can be "Byte(s)", "KB", "MB", "GB", and "TB".
<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 3. Date <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Search for all files and directory whose "date property" is within the date range given. The "date properties" are "Modified Date", "Accessed Date", "Changed Date", and "Created Date". You must also specify the timezone for the date given.
<br><br><br>
To use any of these filters, check the box next to the category and click "Search" button to start the search process. The result will show up in the "<a href="nbdocs:/org/sleuthkit/autopsy/corecomponents/docs/dataresult-about.html">Result Viewer</a>".
<br><br>
</p>
<h2>Example</h2>
<p>
Here's an example where I try to get all the directories and files whose name contains "hello", has a size greater than 1000 Bytes, and was created between 06/15/2010 and 06/16/2010 (in GMT-5 timezone):

Tip: to create a link which will open in an external web browser, try:
<object classid="java:org.netbeans.modules.javahelp.BrowserDisplayer">
<param name="content" value="http://www.netbeans.org/">
<param name="text" value="<html><u>http://www.netbeans.org/</u></html>">
<param name="textFontSize" value="medium">
<param name="textColor" value="blue">
</object>
To create a link to a help set from another module, you need to know the code name base and path, e.g.:
<a href="nbdocs://org.netbeans.modules.usersguide/org/netbeans/modules/usersguide/configure/configure_options.html">Using the Options Window</a>
(This link will behave sanely if that module is disabled or missing.)
