Narrow search option [DONE]

Post by windmage »

It would be nice to have an option (in user prefs?) to do narrow searches, i.e. always match only a single hit when the search key exactly matches one of the names or short names of an anime. It's a pain searching for "nge" and getting all anime titles with those three letters in their title when it's obvious what I was really looking for..

I'm not sure how this should be best implemented/tweaked, but surely there's some way to make it more convenient..

Use quotation marks, aka "NGE".

Cool, thanks. Sorry if this makes me a baka, but I don't think it was documented anywhere... :P
