Addendum:
The above code will work, but... it searches for each field name
separately. As a result, if there are multiple fieldnames in the same
tiddler that contain the query text, that tiddler will be listed multiple
times.
Your intuition to use "join[,]" to construct a list of fields is actually
the better approach. Thus:
<$vars flds={{{ [fields[]regexp[_plac$]join[,]] }}}>
<<searchflds>>
</$vars>
Notes:
* the $vars finds all fieldnames ending in "_plac" and assembles a
comma-separated list
* the searchflds macro then uses that list of fieldnames to find the
occurrences of "query" within any of those fields
Because the search is looking in all of the "_plac" fieldnames at the same
time, any matching tiddlers are only listed once.
