- The LOCATE command finds all lines containing some text in your file,
- and prints them in the history window. As with the CHANGE command,
- only exact matches work, that is, `LOCATE the' will not locate words
- such as `then' or `they'. You may surround the text with double quotes
- to match parts of words. The LOCATE command is case-sensitive only when
- you use quotes.
-
- To move within your current file to a bit of text, use the FIND
- (F3) key instead.
