Boolean Searches

Please note that Glimpse search supports an `AND' operation denoted by AND and an `OR' operation denoted by OR but not a combination of both. For example,

good AND bad, will find all lines containing 'good' AND 'bad'.

good OR bad will find all lines containing 'good' OR 'bad'.

Wildcards

Use # as a wildcard, that is, to match any string of characters, as in
associate #adm
which will match "associate" followed by any string of characters followed by "adm".

Limitations on Search terms

Search terms with more than 30 characters do not work.

Line Numbers

Although the search engines gives the line number of the line that matched the query, the browsers generally do not provide line numbers in their displays. Therefore, you may need to use the "search" or "Find" item of your browser to get at the line of interest. For example, Netscape has its "Find" item under its "Edit" menu.
