Summary of the new feature/enhancement

Need to be able to search within the terminal window. When using bash inside of windows terminal, I am unable to search for a text string inside of the output windo.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

I want to be able to press something like ctrl+f and be prompted for a search string. I should type in a string and press a "search" button that will search for the string within the output text area and bring me to the next found instance.

I actually did search for it and for some reason I didn't see it there. I appreciate the quick response and thanks for doing so much on this project. I am loving it so far! Windows has needed this for so long and this has been the only thing keeping me on MacOS is the lack of a decent terminal in windows.
