We're thinking about changing the setting to make the w/X operator mean number of WORDS not characters. We think our users would relate to this more easily -- w/2 means within 2 words.
If we do that, is that based on an approximation of word length (i.e. 1 word=8 characters) or is it really based on actual words?
Related question: When a user use the asterisk at the end of a word, does it stop at the end of the word? If I search foo* I expect to get foobar but do I also get foo bar.
I assume there's no way to limit that wild card to fewer characters.
Thanks, Tom
