[EP-tech] Re: search for 2-character-string

Hi Adam,

> But how to use regular expressions or something similar?
can you imagine any hack to overcome the contradicting properties of 'text' resp. 'id' fields?
'id' type allows search 'as is' without ignoring anything, but _no_ search patterns;
'text' type allows search by search patterns, but ignores any pattern less than 3 characters long :(

Any idea?
Thomas
