When I originally went down the wildcard route, I wrote some gentle text
preprocessing (using replace) to make sure words are always bounded by a space,
including before punctuation and at an eol.
I also need users to see the reason the message appears in the results (i.e
the matched filter) so they are listed under a heading consisting of the
search term. Not sure what users would make of regex!
Thanks again,
