I'm working on the development of what is the best bible search tool on the web.
Imagine searching through the bible, between verses. and you have the capabilities to search "in the beginning of the verses" "ending with" "this order" "these words" and "exact phrase".
Another capability is that you can search wildcardly *beginning end* *both*.
(also ability to choose length of wildcards).
One option is that you can have optional words in between the words searched for. (or if you forget the whole ending or beginning which you search for).
Right now im making the ability to use a logical "or".
We can search between/through verses and choose ranges.
So we have logical "and", "or". And "maybe", "probably" and "almost". The final approach could be "perhaps you mean't like this"; as like google suggestions "did you mean".
Would anyone have any ideas that stretch beyond these ways and capabilities ?
In bibleworks i understand it have some quite advanced search capability as well, but to what extent is it used?
Here you may see the search tool (http://scripture.sourceforge.net/?searcher&b=1)
