Searching M204wiki

M204wiki offers these alternative ways to find the information you want:

• Your browser's Google search.

  

  This might be the best of the search options, though very recently created pages might not yet be indexed.

  Precede or follow your search term with the word M204wiki. (Ignore Google's message: "Did you mean M204 Wiki?" M204wiki as one word yields better search results.)

  The search is not case-sensitive. Enclose multiple-word search terms in quotation marks for the most precise results.

  
  

• The M204wiki search, a search box located above the article text or in the left sidebar.

  Under the default ("Vector") "skin" (wiki interface presentation) and the default user search preference (pre-selected "Enable enhanced search suggestions" checkbox):

  • The Vector search tool uses what you type in the search box as a stem, and it suggests auto-completions for existing wiki page names (and for previous search strings you attempted on this browser). Selecting the name of a page then brings up the page.
  • If you search for a non-existing page name (case not important), you get a list of pages that contain or approximately contain your search string.

  An advantage of this tool is quick creation of a new page:

  1. Specify the page name, exactly as you want it.
  2. Click the "magnifying glass" icon.
  3. In the "Search results" page, click the page name (red) in the prompt to create a new page.

  
  

• The Method search tool found in the sidebar Help/Editing area.

  This is for Janus SOAP system class methods only. In addition to being very fast, this tool provides wildcard searching, so you don't have to know the exact method name.

  
  

• Browsing a category page.

  Most M204wiki pages belong to one or more categories, which are named collections of similar topics. A category page contains links to each of its member topics. Category page names are prefixed by Category: and are collected themselves on the Categories page.
