 Filters support regexes to display only the matched entries in the current directory view. This effectively allows searching through the directory tree for a particular entry.
 
-Filters do not stack on top of each other. They are applied anew every time.
+Filters do not stack on top of each other. They are applied anew every time. There are 3 ways to reset a filter:
 
-An empty filter expression resets the filter.
+An empty filter expression, a search with no results or an extra backspace at the filter prompt (like vi).
+
+If you want to list all matches starting with the filter expression (a common use case), start the expression with a `^` (caret) symbol.
 
 If nnn is invoked as root the default filter will also match hidden files.
