	  to expand the drop-down list.</p>
        </item>
        <item>
	  <p>Select the search condition from the list.</p>
	</item>
        <item>
	  <p>Enter the text you want to search for and press
	  <key>Enter</key>.</p>
	</item>
        <item>
	  <p><app>Evolution</app> displays the search results.</p>

      <p>Searching by category:</p>

      <steps>

      </steps>
