<h2><u>Filtering</u></h2>
<p>
Normally a pane will display all the files and/or directories that exist within the dir-view selection. However you might sometimes want to display only some of these: for example, only files with the extension ".txt". This can be accomplished with the Filter dialog, available from View > Filter Display, Context Menu > Filter Display or Ctrl-Sh-F.<br><br>
<b>?</b> and <b>*</b> are wildcards for one/several characters. You can use more than one filter at a time, separated by ',' or '|'.<br>
So <b>a*.txt,MyText*.txt</b> will show only .txt files beginning with 'a' or with 'MyText'. <b>d?g.txt</b> will show both dog.txt and dig.txt.<br><br>
Normally these filters apply only to the currently-selected pane, but the dialog has an option for applying the filter to all visible panes at once. 
It also has a quick way of reverting to "Show Everything", and in a file-view you can choose to display only files.<br>
