+
+The ~denote-search~ package by Lucas Quintana provides a search
+utility for Denote: <https://github.com/lmq-10/denote-search>.
+
+It allows you to search for a regular expression in the content of
+your notes. Its main advantages over other similar tools are the
+possibility of filtering the results by file name and doing further
+searches in the files matched previously. This allows for advanced
+usage (think about finding a note with two or three specific words in
+different lines and with a specific keyword). More features are
+described in its comprehensive manual. ~denote-search~ builds upon
+standard Emacs libraries, namely Xref, and so it doesn't have external
+dependencies other than Denote itself.
+
** Use the ~denote-explore~ package to explore your notes
