Ubuntu’s Search for files tool has field named “Name does not contain”. For instance, I don’t want to find files with extensions “idl” and “key”. What should I write there?
Another use case – looking in sub-folders. For instance, i don’t want to look in sub-folders “out” and “deploy” in the selected folder. What should i write in “Name does not contain” field?
If I put only “idl” (w/o quotes) the result is ok. But if I put “.idl .key” or “idl key” (w/o quotes), the result still contains files with extensions “idl” and “key”. The same for folders (As I understand, folder name is a part of filename).
