Though to support easy search patterns, too, the entered string is broken up at every whitespace. Each word is checked for a leading forward slash. Words with such slash are interpreted as perl regular expression, words without are taken verbatim. Verbatim words are processed so that any character is searched as written, most importantly characters like the backslash or dot are quoted. The verbatim words AND , OR and NOT are used as operators and may be used to form more complex search patterns.
Searches are case-insensitive, except for the operators mentioned above.
Both the single and double quotes are recognized. If a perl search expression ends with another forward slash, the pattern is searched case-sensitively. To change the precedence use the parenthesises, but they must be surrounded by at least one space. For more information about what bugtrack is and what it can do, see the FreeDOS bug pages .
