NAME
nala-search - Search package names and descriptions
SYNOPSIS
nala search [--options] REGEX ...
DESCRIPTION
Search package names and descriptions using a word, regex or glob
By default search will only use regex.
If you start your query with g/, search will only Glob.
Note: You may need to quote the pattern so the shell doesn't glob first
Examples:
Glob that will match nala and anything text after it:
sudo nala search "g/nala*"
A question mark in a glob will match any single character:
sudo nala search "g/na?a"
This would match nala or even nada
Regex works similar to globbing but is much more powerful.
For more information on Glob and Regex pattern matching:
man glob.7
man regex.7
