And in that vein, we would not want to leave out Super Search... I think one of the best ways to get acquainted with some new module is to put this into the first text box ("Match text containing: ..."): `Some::Module <code>` [download] If the module in question actually exists, that query to Super Search is sure to turn up a variety of nodes containing code snippets using that module. Best thing ever.	[reply] [d/l]

And in that vein, we would not want to leave out Super Search...(snip)...Match text containing: ...Some::Module For those kinds of searches, I wouldn't overburden the site...you could more easily use google and get better results. Save SuperSearch for things like searching by poster or (no replies)/(replies only), etc.	[reply]
