In this chapter, you will learn how to search your bookmarks by tags using the address bar.
Basic usage
To start a search, type # into the address bar and press Tab, then type a tag name. As you type, bookmarks that have one of matched tags are shown.
To open a webpage, select (highlight) a bookmark in the same way as you select tags with a search box (using ↓, ↑, etc.) and press Enter. You can also click on a search result directly. Press Esc to cancel the current search.
Search operators
Search operators are characters that have special meaning in address bar search. You can change characters to use as search operators in the options page.
">" (Show next 5 matches)
By default, the address bar search only shows first 5 matches. To see subsequent matches, append ">" to your search term.
This operator can be repeated like this:
tag : 1st to 5th tag> : 6th to 10th tag>> : 11th to 15th
"&" (Combine tags)
You can specify multiple tags by combining them with "&" to search for bookmarks that have all of them.
"/" (Match nested tags)
If "/" is appended to a tag name, not only bookmarks that have one of matched tags but also those having one of matched tags' subtags are included in search results as shown below.
┗ [F1: "Asia"]
┣ [F2: "Singapore"]
┃ ┗ [B1: "The Straits Times"]
┗ [F3: "Japan"]
┗ [B2: "The Japan Times"]
Combining search operators
Here's an example of using all the available operators at the same time.
News&Asia/&Economy>>
This is interpreted as 'search for bookmarks that have "News" and "Asia" (or its subtags) and "Economy" tags, and show the 11th to 15th matches'.
