• Boolean operators:
  
  • Infix: or/OR, and/AND
  • Prefix: +, -/not
• By default it matches partial words and ORs search terms together.
• Search is case-insensitive.
• Group words inside "double quotes" to match phrases.
• Put spaces inside " double " quotes to match exact words.
• You can use regular expressions within search terms (up to a point: suck it and see). I’m using blosxom’s find plugin, unhacked.
