Which key words are case sensitive

Post by searcher1 »

Hi

Of the existing keywords: Operators, Macros, Modifiers, Functions, Content Searching:
Which ones must be lower case? Which ones are case insensitive?

I just learned by trial and error:
"folder:" "file:" must be lower case.

Thank You

Operators are always case sensitive. (AND OR NOT)

Everything 1.4: macros, modifiers and functions are case sensitive.

Everything 1.5: macros, modifiers and functions are case insensitive.
-Everything 1.5 will do a case sensitive search for macros, modifiers and functions first.
-If there's no match, Everything 1.5 will then do a case insensitive search.



Content searching (content:) case sensitivity will depend on your Search menu -> Match Case setting.
