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
