comb

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'search' is the definition.
(combing is a kind of searching)

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for comb that I've seen before include "Hair-tidier" , "Groom; search" , "Fastening spikes" , "Search methodically" , "Toothed device - crest" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
