<summary>Filter help</summary>
<p>
The filter consists of a space separated list of conditions.
A diagnostic is shown if <em>all conditions are true</em>.
Each condition takes the form:
</p>
<!-- <code>[ facet ] [ : | = | &lt; | &gt; | &lt;= | &gt;= ] value</code> -->
<code>[ facet ] [ operator ] value</code>
<p>
Where the facet is the name of the attribute of the diagnostic to test, and the operator is one of:
</p>
<dl>
<dt>:</dt>
<dd>A colon tests whether the value is <em>in</em> (is a substring of) the facet.</dd>
<dt>=</dt>
<dd>An equals sign tests whether the value is <em>exactly equal</em> to the facet.</dd>
<dt>&lt;, &gt;, &lt;=, &gt;=</dt>
<dd>A less-than, greater-than, less-than-or-equal or greater-than-or-equal sign tests whether the value sorts before or after the facet, allowing for ranges of dates and numbers.</dd>
</dl>
<p>
If no facet is specified it defaults to checking the value is in the title, equivalent to <code>title:value</code>.
Values may be quoted to include special characters, such as spaces.
</p>
<p>Conditions may be combined with <code>AND</code> or <code>OR</code>, or prefixed with <code>NOT</code> to get the inverse.</p>
<h3>Examples</h3>
<dl>
<dt>histogram</dt>
<dd>"histogram" in the title.</dd>
<dt>title:"air temperature"</dt>
<dd>"air temperature" in the title.</dd>
<dt>field:temperature</dt>
<dd>"temperature" in facet "field".</dd>
<dt>field=temperature</dt>
<dd>"temperature" exactly matches field.</dd>
<dt>NOT temperature</dt>
<dd>"temperature" is not in title.</dd>
<dt>field=x_wind OR field=y_wind</dt>
<dd>Field equals "x_wind" or "y_wind".</dd>
<dt>histogram AND field:temperature</dt>
<dd>"histogram" in title and "temperature in facet "field".</dd>
<dt>(histogram AND field:temperature) OR (time_series AND field:humidity)</dt>
<dd>Histograms of temperature and time series of humidity. Parenthesis indicate precedence.</dd>
