Is there a way in Felix to filter out/exclude specific character
strings (similar to the way a google search works)?

For example, I found over 200 hits in my TM for the character string "せ
よ".
These 200 hits include "させよ" and "にせよ". I do not want the matches for
"させよ" and "にせよ" to appear.

If I were doing a google search, I could accomplish this goal by
filtering out character strings, e.g. ["せよ" -させよ -にせよ].

Is there a way in Felix to filter out specific character strings?

Thank you. Brian

If I understand correctly, you can do this using regular expressions. To use
a regular expression, prefix the search string with "regex:". In the case
above, the following search string will exclude "させよ" and "にせよ" from
the search matches:

regex:[^さ|に]せよ
