-<p>Search the registry for packages matching the search terms.</p>
-<p>If a term starts with <code>/</code>, then it&#39;s interpreted as a regular expression.
-A trailing <code>/</code> will be ignored in this case. (Note that many regular
-expression characters must be escaped or quoted in most shells.)</p>
+<p>Search the registry for packages matching the search terms. <code>npm search</code>
+performs a linear, incremental, lexically-ordered search through package
+metadata for all files in the registry. If color is enabled, it will further
+highlight the matches in the results.</p>
+<p>Additionally, using the <code>--searchopts</code> and <code>--searchexclude</code> options paired with
+more search terms will respectively include and exclude further patterns. The
+main difference between <code>--searchopts</code> and the standard search terms is that the
+former does not highlight results in the output and can be used for more
+fine-grained filtering. Additionally, both of these can be added to <code>.npmrc</code> for
+default search filtering behavior.</p>
+<p>Search also allows targeting of maintainers in search results, by prefixing
+their npm username with <code>=</code>.</p>
+<p>If a term starts with <code>/</code>, then it&#39;s interpreted as a regular expression and
+supports standard JavaScript RegExp syntax. A trailing <code>/</code> will be ignored in
+this case. (Note that many regular expression characters must be escaped or
+quoted in most shells.)</p>
