One of the things I hate most in search systems is that you generally
can't use exclusions, ie the ability to search for some keyword outside
of a given context.
For instance, looking for : EuGTK crash
will give me a lot of stuff I have to sift out, since I'd be interested in:
EuGTK crash .except. linux
so as not to be concerned with linux crash reports,as I have no linux
box atm.
Is this feasible or desirebla?

ps: does anyone know if Northern Light advanced search engine (that was
nlresearch.com or something) is back online for general public access?
That was the most impressive, useful stuff I've ever seen in this field.
It went down in 2001 I think following a buyout.
