It's in the help for the search (?multi), though it should probably have a full page devoted to it: '// ======================================================== multi MultiSearch Perform multiple searches with a single command line expression. superMultiModeEnabled can be set to true in localprefs.js to enable super multi mode which allows different sets of searches to be done (ie: multi search1 /firstParam; search2 search3 /secondParam) superMultiModeSepChar can be set to a character in localprefs.js to determine the split character for the super multi mode the default value is ; Usage: multi <search1> [<search2> [...]] <term> Example: multi av gg wood planes - Display the search results for wood planes on altavista and google. multi fm;sf hs /new - Display the new projects and files on freshmeat, sourceforge, and hotscripts provided superMultiModeEnabled is set to true in localprefs.js. '// ======================================================== With over 300 searches you can easily expect to spend a year learning each search, and making your own. I've committed over a dozen searches I've made to DQSD and my own 'localsearches' folder currently has 15 searches in it - most of them are for different sites I work on, and I have a 'tester' search specifically for helping to create new searches. I think we ought to do a 'search a day' type thing where the fine points of specific searches are detailed so people know what's available to them. Is anyone interested in that? I'd cover the searches I use myself first, of course. ;) Regards, Shawn K.
