Question Search Options

I can find nothing in ANY of the FAQ's or documentation the confirms or denies the existence of any method of doing any kind of search, other than a single word.

Is there *any* way to do either a boolean or even a phrase search (like "search information" or "chocolate cake")???

Thanks!

I think why there isn't any documentation about this is each servent vendor (LimeWire, Bearshare, etc.) can match queries in whatever way it sees fit, although I imagine there is some sort of standard that most servents follow. I don't know what that would be.

spaces count as AND .
So if you want "Chocolate Cake"
Just type in "Chocolate Cake"
And LW will see it as : "ChocolateANDCake"
Thus the search turns up eveything containg both "Chocolate" and "Cake"

But don't type in the AND command and thelike itself !
LW does not support them .
If you type in "ChocolateANDCake" , LW will literally search for "ChocolateANDCake" (1 long word)
