# Search and traces
Search every file in the folder, and turn a pasted error into a jump list.
Search in Rip has two homes. The search bar finds text in the current file. The search tab finds text in the whole folder. A third tab, Locations, turns any text with file references into a list you can jump through.
## Search the folder
Press secondary-shift-f. A search tab opens with a query field. Results appear while you type, grouped by file, with each match highlighted. Rip searches on background threads, so a long query never blocks the editor.
down and up move through the results. enter opens the selected match in the editor at that line.
To find text in one file, use the search bar. [Editing](/docs/editing.md#find-and-replace) describes it.
## Locations: paste a trace
An error message, a stack trace, or compiler output names files and lines. Copy that text and press secondary-shift-j. The Locations tab opens and lists every `path:line:col` reference it finds, each with a few lines of context. Paste other text into the tab to replace the list.
down and up move through the list. enter opens the file at that line. escape returns to the editor.
