There isn't a search capability and it might be nice to add one. There is a kind of related capability that you might not be aware of that could be helpful. You probably know that if you hit up-arrow in the command line it cycles backwards through the command history. What you might not know is that if you type a few characters in the command line and then hit shift-uparrow, it cycles backwards only through commands that start with those characters. So if you type "open", then shift-uparrow will goes backwards through just your open commands.

You might also want to check out the clix bundle, which offers an alternative command-line implementation which does have searching the command history, along with a bunch of other neat features.

Dear ChimeraX team,

Not sure if there is one already, would be great to have a search box in the "Command History" window.

Best,
Roden
