It would be very useful (at least to me) to support multiple terms in the "Filter Subjects" box when searching/browsing. For example, I might like to be able to exclude any entry with either "German" or "French" in the subject, seeing as my German is really poor and my French is non-existent. (And it would be good to keep a bunch of previous terms sets around so I don't have to retype them every time).
I don't think there's a strong need for multiple include terms as most search engines seem to do that already (although IIRC some treat them as connected by AND and others by OR, so it could be useful).

Incicentally, Newzleech does have an exclude operator: !
So: blah !french !german
-
Doh! :-[
Very nice to know and I'd say that reduces the need for this request dramatically...
Thanks for the tip!
-
No worries, it's not documented anywhere afaik. I have no idea about the other sites, though ... perhaps we need to make a list of search operators for each?
Still a good request, ;)

edith says: +1 for the initial request
using min size is much easier for that purpose, since most are smaller than 1 or 2 MB

Very nice to know!
But still I would favor when a better filtering were possible within AltBinz so
+1
for this suggestion.
A simple solution for the most common searches would be if the "include"- and "exclude"-search-filter-bar were two seperate ones, instead of one bar where one has to trigger between "include" and "exclude"

Yes please and if possible also + and - to work incomjuction with each other, at the same time. Though multiple filters is needed. Do you know by chance, those for newzleech and binsearch ?
Have tried many - + , ; etc.
