Searching

Searching is really simple: Type in one or more words into the search field and click "Search" (or press Return). If "Match ALL words" is selected, only those documents are returned which contain all of your search terms. With "Match ANY word" all documents are returned which contain at least one of your search terms. Alternatively you can put a plus sign (+) directly in front of one or more words to only get those files which include all of those words. Words with a minus (-) sign directly in front of them change the result so that only documents are listed which don't contain any of those words.

Note that phrase searches are not supported, i.e. it doesn't make sense to put quotes around your query "like this".

The results are ordered by relevance with the most relevant documents listed first. Relevance depends on the number and position of matched words in the documents.
