Is it possible to use wildcards for the keyword search you added? I noticed that it seems to match whole-words, which is probably good (i.e. chief doesn't filter chiefs). But it might be nice to be able to use wildcards. Maybe. I dunno.

I haven't tried it out using the typical "*" though, so let me know if it's already in there and I just need to do it!

No... no wild cards.

It does use regular expressions though. I don't know if you've had any experience with that, but it's a really messed up form of wildcards for programmers.

Give me a little bit of time to think about it, I'm sure I can cook something up like that.

Eh, I don't know how big of a deal it would be. You can always just add multiple versions of a word to the ignore list.

Well, since there is no real form of wildcard in the code, I'd have to do searches for those wildcards and convert them into the appropriate code that would essentially do the same thing.

Not a huge issue but could get tricky making it do exactly what you want.

Thanks to those with the kind words. I'm glad that you've been finding this useful.

Reg Expression sometimes are needed for patterned data

nice addition to Oracle
