Currently there is no good way to do it. You can however do a regexp search for: ‘(?m:.*?)«search string»’. The ‘(?m:.*?)’ part will ensure that everything before ‘«search string»’ ends up as selected.

Eventually I will add support for Emacs style marks, and that will be the nice solution for this. But for now, the regexp searching is the only option.
