Hi,<br>
<br>
Check <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://xapian.org/docs/queryparser.html">http://xapian.org/docs/queryparser.html</a> for an overview.<br>
<br>
If you want to test, look at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://demoprints.eprints.org/cgi/search/simple">http://demoprints.eprints.org/cgi/search/simple</a> and try, for
instance, to search for:<br>
<br>
rit* (will match rituals etc)<br>
rituals AND turtle<br>
rituals -turtle<br>
"mating rituals" for exact matching<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
You may also pre-pend a field name eg:<br>
<br>
title: rituals<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
Seb.<br>
