I'd like to know more about the matching algorithm though. BBEdit seems to match on any 'word' in the clipping name, but I can't find that documented anywhere. It's something I stumbled upon and would like to know more about what "matching options" I have. Eg. if only one clipping is found due to match on the second word in clipping title; it's not automatically entered.

If there is a partial word before the insertion point, BBEdit looks for a clipping of the form `clippingName BEGINSWITH partialWord`. If there is a single match, it is just inserted. If there are multiple matches, the clipping panel appears. Filtering in the clipping panel, however, works like `clippingName CONTAINS searchString` to make it eaiser to filter lists which many common prefixes (apache_* and mysql_* in the PHP are examples where it might be convenient to not have to type out the entire prefix.)
