Query

Single term query

This query specifies only one term for retrieving all of the documents which contain that term, for example:

Sneewittchen

or

Froschk"onig (ö = "o etc.)

or

Gei"slein (ß = "s)

AND query

This query specifies two or more terms for retrieving all of the documents which contain both terms. Insert the and operator between the terms, e.g.

H"ansel and Gretel

You can omit the and operator. Terms which are separated by one ore more spaces are assumed to be an AND query.

OR query

This query specifies two or more terms for retrieving all documents which contain any one term. Insert the or operator between the terms, e.g.

H"ansel or Gretel

NOT query

This query specifies two or more terms for retrieving all of the documents which contain a first term but do not contain the following terms. Insert the not operator between the terms, for example:

Gretel not H"ansel

Grouping

You can group queries by surrounding them by parentheses. The parentheses should be separated by one or more spaces. e.g.

( Esel and Hund and Katze ) not Huhn

Phrase searching

You can search for a phrase that consists of two or more terms by surrounding them with double quotation marks or braces such as "..." and {...}. In Namazu, the precision of phrase searching is not 100 %, so wrong results may occasionally occur. Example:

{Frau Holle}

Substring matching

The are three types of searching by substring matching.

Prefix matching
inter* (terms which begin with inter)
Inside matching
*text* (terms which contain text)
Suffix matching
*net (terms which terminated with net)

Regular expressions

You can use regular expressions for pattern matching. The regular expressions must be surrounded by slashes like /.../. Namazu uses Ruby's regular regular expressions engine. It generally offers a Perl compatible flavor. e.g.,

/pro(gram|blem)s?/

Field-specified searching

You can limit your search to specific fields such as Subject:, From:, Message-Id:. This feature is especially convenient for Mail/News documents, for example:
