You might try "Starts With 'cat '" ... then it will delimit things quite a lot further. > I've been playing around with Keywords today.

Don't know where you'd get a downloadable thesaurus. I've not played with all the notions of synonyms, hierarchies yet. I'm still keywording for simple things like "where are all the photos I took at aviation museums in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005?" etc. Simple sets do make sense to me ... say "<location>,<primary subject>,<secondary subject>" as one keyword set. E.g.: I have lots of pictures of trees, taken all over the world, so I typically keyword for 'tree', where in the world they are, and whether there is any other subject in the scene that I might want the photo for.
