Hi Rickman,
It wouldn't find it from brian the way it's set up now. If you want to find words starting with a group of letters, you can put them in followed by a character. So it would find it from brian or bria* in this case.
This will only work if you supply at least four real letters before the and it will only work if the asterisk is the last character in a word. If you tried to search for c it would treat it as a literal search and probably not find anything. We imposed that limit as it doeesn't make a lot of sense to search for all words that start c (and so on.) Four letters seemed like a fair compromise.
The search package we have now does all sorts of fancy schmancy stuff but we want to let it settle down in a fairly simple form before unleashing anyone on the more advanced stuff.
Regards, Tech

We probably have a copy, but in general yes it's gone from the site.
