i was looking @ the wishlist ... and noticed frame[0:] ~= "string" to be @ the bottom of the list, for both capture + display, is there a reason why the frame find code could not be reapplied to that filter? (just a general question) ... this of course is pertaining to doing it without regex support for the time being.
