Description | Use the mark command to specify certain cards for printing or for special treatment by the go and sort commands. You can mark cards either one at a time, by specifying each card to be marked, or in groups, by using the where condition or by finding forms of the mark command. Marking additional cards does not change the mark property of cards that have already been marked. You use the mark and unmark commands in succession to further narrow down the set of cards. For example, this sequence of commands selects only the cards where the user has asked for help and the request has not yet been fulfilled:
When using the by finding form, the search operates the same way the normal form of the find command does. The mark command searches for cards that contain each word in the findString. The words in the findString must be found at the beginning of a word on the card, but the words do not need to be found together. | ||||||||||||||||||
