    Exclamation Forum Search Engine

    Can we change the search feature to include words of three chars.. rather than the minimum of four chars?

    It drives me nuts when I cant do a search on words like:

    PIC
    LCD
    BIT
    PWM
    POT ETC ETC

    HOW'S A GUY GOING TO DO A SEARCH ON A :

    PIC WITH FOUR BIT LCD

    OR

    LED MONITORING PWM PIN

    The list goes on???

    cheers

    Use a wildcard... PIC* will bring back PIC and PICs, PWM* will bring back all occurances of PWM.
