These auxiliary pages report wiki-related facts:


Google used to index this wiki every few days, but not completely every few days (see argument on GoogleSearch). Currently the only major search engine that indexes this site is MSN Search.

An elaboration of how to do advanced searches on common search engines is beyond the scope of this page, but as an example, with MSN or Google, add "site:c2.com" to your search terms to restrict the search to this site only.

Use this link for an MSN search. Replace "your-search-terms-here" with your search terms: http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=site%3Ac2.com+your-search-terms-here (Why MSN? See GoogleHatesWiki) Example prompt:

  MSN Search: [site:c2.com  functional programming]
Downsides to MSN (Bing):

http://search.google.com/search?q=site%3Ac2.com+your-search-terms-here


Visit http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/c2search.pl for an experimental search tool. The "C2 SearchHelper" allows complex searches using multiple terms connected by AND, OR, or AND-NOT.


There are search plug-ins for Mozilla based browsers that allow you to search from the MozillaBrowser sidebar or the MozillaFirefox search box directly.

A plug-in might not be necessary! Set up your own MozillaFirefox Quick Searches to search directly from your URL bar without a plug-in.
