Quick Search * /t problem

[photoman]

If I do a quick search on * /t to search for anything that is tagged, it returns anything that is tagged, labeled, or commented.
I don't know if this is intentional, but if I search on anything other than *, it seems to search only tags as I expected.

Same behavior happens when using tags:*
Similar behavior happens when searching lbl:* It will return anything tagged or commented even if there is no label.

That is correct. The "t" here does not stand for "tags" but for "tag.dat" and means that only items in the tags database are found. The * (or whatever else you put there) here refers to the filename, not to any tags, labels, or comments.

Tip: To find out what a search has been actually doing, run this through the address bar right after the search. It shows how your query has been parsed:

Code: Select all

text <get find_queryparsed>;
