Remove the single find widget from top, add one to each tab at the bottom instead. (Turns out you don't usually want to search for the same text in both types of widget.) Also provide sensible no-results text.

<h2>I've added a new file: what do I do with it?</h2>

<p>When you add a new file in the working folder, you normally want to
ensure that Mercurial keeps track of changes to that file &ndash; and that
the file is included in all copies of the repository.  To do this, you
need to tell Mercurial to <i>track</i> the file by adding it to version
control.</p>

<p>EasyMercurial shows files that have been created but not added in the
<b>&ldquo;Untracked&rdquo;</b> file list under &ldquo;My work&rdquo;.  (If your file is not listed
there, try clicking the Refresh button.)</p>

<p><b>1. Find the file you want to add in the Untracked list and select it</b></p>

<p><b>2. Click Add in the toolbar on the left of the window</b></p>

<p>The file will be moved to the <b>&ldquo;Added&rdquo;</b> list.  This tells Mercurial to
track the file.  The next time you commit, the contents of your new
file will be recorded as part of that change set.
<ul><li>Note: the equivalent Mercurial command for this is <b>hg add</b></li></ul></p>

<p>Of course, you don't always want to track every file in your working
copy.  Object files generated by a compiler, output files from tests,
etc should often not be included in version control.  You can ensure
that such files don't show up in the Untracked list by right-clicking
on them and choosing <b>&ldquo;Ignore..."</b>.</p>
