Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

Hi. Every time I launch the selection pattern through ctrl+s, I'm interested in selecting a pattern CONTAINED in the file's name. Almost 100% of the times I've done it I've had to add an asterisk at the start of the pattern, and one at the end.

Could the selection pattern tool look for filenames CONTAINING the input, and not only equaling it? That would make my life easier.

Thanks,

David.
