It's a regex search; how about trying:

\WMPI\W lang:python

This is funny. Regular Google only searches for full words and not fragments.

I entered "MPI," one of my interests, in a search of Python software beyond the MPI modules in SciPy I'm aware of.

I got back everything that had the word "compile" in it, with characters "MPI" highlighted in the middle of the word. :)

Thus, rendering the huge number of results fairly useless.

However, it will search for 'punctuation' character sequences like "::" or "<<" which regular Google ignores.

Luckily, I enjoy life without braces, though. So this is not a biggy for me. :)
