-- **`;` - Global Find**: Find cursor value across all columns
-- **`:` - Global Expression Find**: Open dialog to search all columns with expression
-

-- **`v` - View by Value**: Filter/view rows by selected rows or cursor value (others hidden but preserved)
-- **`V` - View by Expression**: Filter/view rows using custom Polars expression (others hidden but preserved)
-
-**Advanced Matching Options**:
+**Advanced Options**:
 
 When searching or finding, you can use checkboxes in the dialog to enable:
-- **Match Nocase**: Ignore case differences (e.g., "john", "John", "JOHN" all match)
-- **Match Whole**: Match complete value, not partial substrings or words (e.g., "cat" won't match in "catfish")
+- **Match Nocase**: Ignore case differences
+- **Match Whole**: Match complete value, not partial substrings or words
 
-These options work with plain text searches. Use Polars regex patterns in expressions for more control:
-- **Case-insensitive matching in expressions**: Use `(?i)` prefix in regex (e.g., `(?i)john`)
-- **Word boundaries in expressions**: Use `\b` in regex (e.g., `\bjohn\b` matches whole word)
+These options work with plain text searches. Use Polars regex patterns in expressions for more control. For example, use `(?i)` prefix in regex (e.g., `(?i)john`) for case-insensitive matching.
 
 **Quick Tips:**
-- Search results highlight matching rows/cells in **red**
-- Multiple searches **accumulate selections** - each new search adds to the selections
+- Search results highlight matching rows in **red**
+- Use expression for advanced selection (e.g., $attack > $defense)
+- Multiple searches **accumulate** - each new search adds to the selections or matches
 - Type-aware matching automatically converts values. Resort to string comparison if conversion fails
 - Use `u` to undo any search or filter
 
-### 3b. Find & Replace
-
-The application provides powerful find and replace functionality for both single-column and global replacements.
+### 4. Find & Replace
+Find by value/expression and highlight matching cells:
+- `/` - Find cursor value within current column (respects data type)
+- `?` - Open dialog to search current column with expression
+- `;` - Find cursor value across all columns
+- `:` - Open dialog to search all columns with expression
+- `n` - Go to next matching cell
+- `N` - Go to previous matching cell
 
-**Replace Operations**:
-- **`r` - Column Replace**: Replace values in the current column
-- **`R` - Global Replace**: Replace values across all columns
+Replace values in current column (`r`) or across all columns (`R`).
 
 **How It Works:**
 
-When you press `r` or `R`, a dialog opens where you can enter:
-1. **Find term**: The value or expression to search for
-2. **Replace term**: What to replace matches with
-3. **Matching options**:
-   - **Match Nocase**: Ignore case differences when matching (unchecked by default)
-   - **Match Whole**: Match complete words only, not partial words (unchecked by default)
-4. **Replace option**:
-   - Choose **"Replace All"** to replace all matches at once (with confirmation)
-   - Otherwise, review and confirm each match individually
-
-**Replace All** (`r` or `R` → Choose "Replace All"):
-- Shows a confirmation dialog with the number of matches and replacements
-- Replaces all matches with a single operation
-- Full undo support with `u`
-- Useful for bulk replacements when you're confident about the change
-
-**Replace Interactive** (`r` or `R` → Choose "Replace Interactive"):
-- Shows each match one at a time with a preview of the replacement
-- For each match, press:
-  - `Enter` or press the `Yes` button - **Replace this occurrence** and move to next
-  - Press the `Skip` button - **Skip this occurrence** and move to next
-  - `Escape` or press the `No` button - **Cancel** remaining replacements (but keep already-made replacements)
-- Displays progress: `Occurrence X of Y` (Y = total matches, X = current)
-- Shows the value that will be replaced and what it will become
-- Useful for careful replacements where you want to review each change
-
-**Search Term Types:**
-- **Plain text**: Exact string match (e.g., "John" finds "John")
-  - Use **Match Nocase** checkbox to match regardless of case (e.g., find "john", "John", "JOHN")
-  - Use **Match Whole** checkbox to match complete words only (e.g., find "cat" but not in "catfish")
-- **NULL**: Replace null/missing values (type `NULL`)
-- **Expression**: Polars expressions for complex matching (e.g., `$_ > 50` for column replace)
-- **Regex patterns**: Use Polars regex syntax for advanced matching
-  - Case-insensitive: Use `(?i)` prefix (e.g., `(?i)john`)
-  - Whole word: Use `\b` boundary markers (e.g., `\bjohn\b`)
+When you press `r` or `R`, enter:
+1. **Find term**: Value or expression to search for (done by string value)
+2. **Replace term**: Replacement value
+3. **Matching options**: Match Nocase (ignore case), Match Whole (complete match only)
+4. **Replace mode**: All at once or interactive review
 
-**Examples:**
+**Replace All**:
+- Replaces all matches with one operation
+- Shows confirmation with match count
 
-```
-Find: "John"
-Replace: "Jane"
-→ All occurrences of "John" become "Jane"
-
-Find: "john"
-Replace: "jane"
-Match Nocase: ✓ (checked)
-→ "John", "JOHN", "john" all become "jane"
-
-Find: "cat"
-Replace: "dog"
-Match Whole: ✓ (checked)
-→ "cat" becomes "dog", but "catfish" is not matched
-
-Find: "NULL"
-Replace: "Unknown"
-→ All null/missing values become "Unknown"
-
-Find: "(?i)active"        # Case-insensitive
-Replace: "inactive"
-→ "Active", "ACTIVE", "active" all become "inactive"
-```
+**Replace Interactive**:
+- Review each match one at a time (confirm, skip, or cancel)
+- Shows progress
+
+**Tips:**
+- Search are done by string value (i.e., ignoring data type)
+- Type `NULL` to replace null/missing values
+- Use `Match Nocase` for case-insensitive matching
+- Use `Match Whole` to avoid partial replacements
+- Support undo (`u`)
 
-**For Global Replace (`R`)**:
-- Searches and replaces across all columns simultaneously
-- Each column can have different matching behavior (string matching for text, numeric for numbers)
-- Preview shows which columns contain matches before replacement
-- Useful for standardizing values across multiple columns
+### 5. Filter vs. View
 
-**Features:**
-- **Full history support**: Use `u` (undo) to revert any replacement
-- **Visual feedback**: Matching cells are highlighted before you choose replacement mode
-- **Safe operations**: Requires confirmation before replacing
-- **Progress tracking**: Shows how many replacements have been made during interactive mode
-- **Type-aware**: Respects column data types when matching and replacing
-- **Flexible matching**: Support for case-insensitive and whole-word matching
+Both operations show selected rows but with fundamentally different effects:
 
-**Tips:**

-- **`$1`, `$2`, `$3`, etc.** - Column by 1-based position index
-  - Example: `https://example.com/product/$1/details/$2` - Uses 1st and 2nd columns
-  - Useful for structured templates spanning multiple columns
-  - Index corresponds to column display order (left-to-right)
+- **`$1`, `$2`, `$3`, etc.** - Column by 1-based position index, e.g., `https://example.com/product/$1/details/$2` - Uses 1st and 2nd columns
 
-- **`$name`** - Column by name (use actual column names)
-  - Example: `https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/search?q=$product_id` - Uses `product_id` column
-  - Example: `https://example.com/$region/$city/data` - Uses `region` and `city` columns
-  - Useful for readable, self-documenting templates
+- **`$name`** - Column by name (use actual column names), e.g., `https://example.com/$region/$city/data` - Uses `region` and `city` columns
 
 **Features:**
-
-- **Vectorized Expression**: All rows processed efficiently using Polars' vectorized operations
-- **Type Casting**: Column values automatically converted to strings for URL construction
 - **Multiple Placeholders**: Mix and match placeholders in a single template
 - **URL Prefix**: Automatically prepends `https://` if URL doesn't start with `http://` or `https://`
-- **PubChem Support**: Special shorthand - replace `PC` with full PubChem URL
-
-**Examples:**
-
-```
-Template: https://example.com/$_
-Current column: product_id
-Result: https://example.com/ABC123 (for each row's product_id value)
-
-Template: https://database.org/view?id=$1&lang=$2
-Column 1: item_code, Column 2: language

-**Error Handling:**
-
-- **Invalid column index**: `$5` when only 3 columns exist → Error message showing valid range
-- **Non-existent column name**: `$invalid_column` → Error message with available columns
-- **No placeholders**: Template treated as constant → All rows get identical URL
 
 **Tips:**
-
-- Use descriptive column names for `$name` placeholders to make templates self-documenting
-- Test with a small dataset first to verify template correctness
 - Use full undo (`u`) if template produces unexpected URLs
 - For complex multi-column URLs, use column names (`$name`) for clarity over positions (`$1`)
