Subject: nnir search string

Message-ID: <m3hfytvamf.fsf@chub.local> (raw)
This will probably get lost in Lars'uper human output.
Can any kind of `regexp' or `boolean' formula be used at the nnir
prompt. The comments in nnir.el, say a 'string' is expected. But that
word always confuses me. It gets used to mean just about anything.
It seems any attempt to use a regexp or boolean operator
like: cake\|cookies or cake;cookies
(both are supported by "glimpse", the second one meaning `and' instead of `or')
results in a lenghty stall that never completes.
Is this just on my setup? Are others able to use regular expressions?
Can any command flags be passed to `glimpse' from the `G G' command prompt?
What problems are encountered trying to impliment the use of the
`glimpse' -F flag? (can be used to restrict the search)
