The thing is that unix names generally tell you what the function is;
grep = general regular expresssion parser cat = concatenate vi = (the odd one our here) The name comes from the shortest unambiguous abbreviation for the command visual in ex
Office Plus & Office Enterprise really do not offer any clue to the differences by reading the name. Microsoft is missing the naming plot, wtf is "Windows Defender" I prefer "Microsoft Anti-Spyware" atleast now I know what it is defending against.
Hmm, I wonder if they will drop the Mac version of office? Can they afford to? If they do where would that leave the corporate Mac users that have become dependent on MS Office?
I might not know * about regex but I do know something, eitherway I am simply saying that the concept can be used in google, its definately not unix standards but its better than nothing.
This would not work; "Date:\s*((\d{1,2}\.){2}\d{4})\s*"
Eitherway, I seem to have gotten people really excited about something a bit misleading, my apologies for that.
Since the first time I started using google it has always impressed me, the ease of use and accurate search results were just the beginning.
For me the best thing about Google is that you can use regular expressions in your search strings which really gives you the best possible results, sure other search engines allow expressions but none as complex or effective as those found in google.
Whenever I need to know something or understand something better I do a quick google and within minutes I have the information I need.
I can think of several occasions where something gets mentioned in a meeting etc and I honestly have no clue what people are talking about, while they are still talking I can do a quick google and be back on track within seconds. The "define word" function is one of my favorite ways to get quick answers.
Other search engines just don't do it for me, the results are not nearly as accurate and the excess adverts/banners slowing down the entire process really annoy me.

Perhaps it was a bit bold to say regular expressions, its more permutations since it supports words and not letters.
But you can do things like "word * word"
You can also do something like this
"(I|He|She) (can|may|will) (search|find|locate)"
I agree with you that they would never (not atm) allow the public to have access to something that is turing-complete.

Have to agree here, SuSE 10 is awesome, no hassles and its works first time for everything, its also much quicker than previous releases.
