archive searching tips, list FAQ submissions

[Brett Dikeman]

Until the new archives are in place, here's a few tips on searching
as part of the list/site FAQ in works.
<<<<
...in the meantime, here are some tips for working with Google.

Google has several help pages accessible at http://www.google.com/help/

Of particular interest is the allintitle: command, which forces
google to only look for words in the title of a document; it is
similar but more restrictive to intitle:.  Because current email
archives all have the subject line of the message as their title,
this will result in a subject-line-only keyword search.

Two other operators that may prove very handy include the - which
excludes certain words(for example -alternator), and phrase
searches(put the phrase in quotes, ie "big honkin car")

>>>>

Second part of this email concerns the help section under
development.  I've covered some of the more common questions(I
think), but basically, I'm looking for submissions for questions
people had(or still have?) about list operations(how to do things,
problems, errors, etc....anything.)

Thanks!
Brett
