Description Germano Massullo (Thetra) 2020-12-28 09:29:17 UTC 
SUMMARY
Some software like Firefox, have a "whole words" option in their find options.
Having this option in Okular may be very useful. For example in my case I need to search the word "man" in a Linux book, but the search will return also things like Roman, commands, manual, performance, manually.
Having a "whole words" option could tell Okular to just search "man"
