search count ignored & search question.

[jagooding]

Hi Jed,

I was wondering about a couple things, the first question I have is, when you do a .search, for say, "foo bar" why does it return all strings that have the words, "foo" and "bar" in them, and not just strings that start with "foo bar" ?

Also the other thing is, I've noticed if you supply a count to .search it is ignored, all the results possible will be returned. count works for word completion and phrase completion.

so for example, say we add the following:

"foo bar baz"
"foo bar bat"
"quack bar kill"
"awooga peaches foo"
"other super nadda"

and we .search() "foo bar" it will return:

"foo bar baz"
"foo bar bat"
"quack bar kill"
"awooga peaches foo"

When I only expected it to return:
"foo bar baz"
"foo bar bat"

Is this a wrong expectation, a bug, or am I using the library wrong?

Thanks,

John
