"... shows that semicolons after the cases are an acceptable alternative to colons: ..."

oh... that looks... weird...

PHP has it too.

that doesn't make it less weird

A little less for those who know PHP.

nec:a;b;nec:c;d = a AND (b OR (c AND (d OR e)))

Am I missing something or isn't there an "e" in the left pattern?

Indeed, the error is was already in the change log. It should be:

The "Path" checkbox in the find files tab has a popup tooltip. The latter part states

Any backslashes must be doubled ("\\") in the search term.

I guess this was made for the regex mode? Maybe a further explanation should be
added...

No, it's other reasons related to the parsing of complex terms. Internal stuff...

I see but even when putting a double quoted path in it, it didn't require doubled backslashes to work correctly...

Isn't this mentioned in Help?

Alternatively to adding backslashes, you can quote the pattern to protect it from parsing:
:!"*\temp\*"
:"*\keyboard*" OR "*\mouse*"

No clue. No one actually reads help files nowadays...

OK, but I don't think anything needs to be done. The tooltip is sufficient. It's not the place to answer the "Why?" question.
