This search engine employs Altavista's shorthand notation for optional, required and forbidden words. Entering jaguar daimler will find documents which contain either word.
To find documents which contain both daimler and
jaguar, enter +daimler +jaguar
A search on +daimler -jaguar will find all documents which contain
daimler except those documents which also contain the
word jaguar.
To find grouped words, use quotes. For example, the query +"jaguar sovereign"
(quotes included) would not generate a hit from the daimler sovereign
is better than the jaguar model. Without quotes, the sentence would count.
A search on +daimler +sovereign -"daimler sovereign" would return only
those documents where daimler and sovereign appear separately.
By default, the Search finds words, not strings. A search for +in
would turn up only that word, not bin,
inside, or acquaintance.
To perform a string search, preface your term with the dollar sign - a
query on +$in would find all words containing
in.
Note: Wildcard searches using the asterisk are
not permitted.
