By default, QS will reset its search after a few seconds. All you have
to do is wait a moment and then start typing again in the first pane
of the QS command window and it will begin a new search.
Alternatively, pressing the Delete key (a.k.a. the Backspace key on
Windows machines) while in the first pane will instantly clear the
current search so that you can start typing in a new search right
away.

The same system works in the second pane to allow you to choose
actions to execute on the object in the first pane. If you don't want
to do the default action for an object, press Tab to move to the
second pane, and start typing the name of the action you want to
perform. Press the down arrow to see the list of options if you aren't
sure what the available actions are.

I highly recommend that you look at Howard Melman's User Guide for
Quicksilver. It will help you get to know the application very
quickly. It is available in the Files section of this website at
