 I'm not sure if Frame supports all of regular expressions, but it does at least this much. If you look for "F[1-9]" (minus the quote marks) you'll find what you want. This is the same string you'd feed grep to find it.

In the worst case, if you can't find what you're looking for in a Frame binary with Frame's find, you can save to MIF and use any text processor or the command line to grep the file for any kind of string you want. MIF can complicate it a bit, but it's doable.
