# Intuition

Try dropping the first word, "Show".

    $ grep -r "preview in image window" .

So how did I know to drop the Show part?

Sometimes you have to try a couple different things when something unexpected happens.

It's just like doing google searches -- sometimes you need more terms, sometimes fewer.

Now we have 77 lines. Notice most of them are pretty much the same (they're actually for different language translations) and all of those have "po" in the line.
