           Summary: Multiple content search terms desired, similar to
                    search in Kmail
           Product: kfind
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Slackware Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: athol_mullen at yahoo.com.au


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

I would like to be able to specify multiple search terms in the Content tab, in
much the same way as the advanced search function in Kmail allows.

Further, being able to search for files that contain one or more terms but also
do NOT contain other terms would be very useful.

Reproducible: Always




I have a large number of Open Office documents, and often have to search for
files containing 2 or 3 distinct terms, and sometimes need to exclude another
term. Presently, the way I do this is to do separate kfind searches on each
term and manually look for files that are in the "required" results and not in
the "exclude" results.
