I hoping replying to the list with this is ok. I
would like to be able to do a search like this:
+draganddrop +"drag and drop" -listview
which would hopefully give me everything on
draganddrop and "drag and drop" not concerning
listviews. Which probably wouldn't be very much but
you get the idea. I appologize in advance if that
functionality is there and I just haven't figured out
how to use it. Thanks Chris

I'd like to see it.
If it's significantly better, we'll use it.
If it's marginally better, probably not,
since it will cost me extra time in future
maintenance efforts.
By the way, speed is not an issue for the file archive search.
It currently uses about 0.1 seconds to search the EDS database.
Any other delay you see is network delay.

Getting rid of an include file would break a lot of code.
upper/lower can be done faster, but I like the extremely short,
and completely general versions in wildcard.e
In general, I like to implement library routines in Euphoria,
rather than enlarge the interpreter by coding them in C.
The speed difference is usually not that bad compared
to hand-coded C, especially when you use the EtoC Translator.

Tell you what would be real nice.
List programs that use a specified function or procedure, eg
getPrintChoice (obviously only when the source is distributed).
I can see that might be just a tad tricky.

I second.
