Filter
Here, you can filter the hublist so you will only see specific hubs in the
hublist.
The filter, consisting of an input box, a column selection box and a method
selection box, can help filter the list on the fly based on textual
matching. You can filter the contents of any individual column or the whole
list. There are three filtering methods available to choose from: exact word
match, partial word match or match a
regular
expression. Note that filtered results are not removed from the list;
they can at any time be restored by just clearing the filter out.
The filter input box can be focused with Alt+I.
Eg, selecting 'address' in the drop down, and writing "foo" in the filter,
will only display hubs that have "foo" in their address. When a filter is in
effect, the number of hubs filtered out is shown in the status bar.
The filter input box can be focused with Alt+I.
