Hm, Andy, can you send publicly?

Short long answer is an overly verbose regular expression howto like 
http://www.amk.ca/python/howto/regex/, and short answer is '^pre' to look 
for words beginning with 'pre' and 'ings$' to look for words ending in 
'ings'. To look for words that begin with pre and end with ings and have a 
Y in the middle, input '^pre.*y.*ings$'. Of course, there are no such 
words. Oh, and you have to enter a query like 'preyings*' (or 'preyings/', 
these mean the same thing in olaugh language) first; that's what's so 
bloody clunky.

um, it'd be a lot more useful to allow regexp input into the regular 
search input box so one doesn't have to use the clunky regexp filter all 
the time. Kind of like google's one-boxes everywhere. hm, duh, I'll have 
to add this soon.

No, but that'd be really cool.

cool!
