Findup Command [FINDU/F3]
Finds the previous line in the workfile that contains a string. Findup can be shortened to ^. Use Find if you want to search for the next line.
FINDUP [string] [linenum]
(Q=no display)
(Default: string = recent; linenum = *-1)
Findup defaults string to be "same as last string" and linenum to be "starting from the previous line". This saves having to repeatedly type the string and linenum. Once you have defined your string and starting position, all you need to enter is "^" or "FINDU" to find the next string.
The F3 user key does the same function as Findup without parameters.
