Searches passed from the command line are automatically expanded.
Searches are automatically expanded when executing an Everything query.
Syntax
[function:arg1,arg2,arg3,...]
"an exact phrase"
Search operators are escaped in the expanded result.
The follow syntax is also supported and is expanded before any other syntax:
#[function:arg1,arg2,arg3,...#]:
The following can be used to escape a block of text:
#[:a literal block of text#]:
Search operators are preserved in the expanded result.
The follow syntax is also supported by the multi-file-renamer:
<function:arg1,arg2,arg3,...>
Parsing a function terminates at a space or OR operator (|) when no []{}<>() call syntax is used.
Use double quotes (") to escape spaces and |.
Expanded text from [function:arg1,arg2,arg3,...] is automatically quoted when used from the search box or command line.
function: and [function:] are "termprocessors" - Search operators in the output are escaped.
#function: is "preprocessor" - Search operators in the output are processed.
Preprocessor is applied first, then the termprocessor for each search term.
