apparent issue with aliases, notably "DC search"

(1/3) > >>

jdmarch:
When I type "Upd", FARR correctly locates
D:\Program Files\DcUpdater\DcUppdater.exe
and several other items in the same folder.

But when I type "DCU", it finds none of these. It only finds donationcder.com URLs

presumably this is finding (only) the dc search alias; I'm still not at all up to speed on aliases, but isn't this an incorrect parsing?

Thanks!

mouser:
hi jd,
i'm not experiencing that behavior.. DCU is searching as expected..  anyone else?

jgpaiva:
Same here. DCU works.
Notice that 'DC U' doesn't. But that isn't supposed to work, since 'DC ' (notice the space) triggers the DC search alias, and anything you write after that space will be used in the query to be made to the forum.

Maybe you could try disabling that alias, to see if you get the same results.

mouser:
jgp's idea for testing is good -
i think i will also add an ability to see what alias/plugin created each result for debugging such things.

jdmarch:
Sorry, I should have done this test first.
It's the "DC forums" alias, whose regex was:
--- ---^dc[ ]*(.*) (Why ever?)

Presumably an obsolete alias or at least an obsolete regex for this alias. I've changed it to simple:
--- ---^dc (.*)
