The 'find' command (also known as the 'prog' command)
allows you to search the database for a specified pattern.
The usage is:
find <expression>
where the interpretation of <expression> depends on the
current value of the 'search' variable. Searches may be
performed in a number of different ways. See the help
section on the 'search' variable for a full explanation.
The output of find can be sorted in different ways,
depending on the value of the 'sortby' variable. See help
for the 'sortby' variable for a full explanation.
The output format of the results can be changed through
use of the "output_format" variable.
The search criteria can be further specified to be restricted
on domain names and pathname components. See the "domains"
comand and the "match_domain" and "match_path" variables.
