[quote user="Bradley Grainger"]Loading the term list into memory is incredibly I/O intensive and very slow (compared to actually performing the search for the words that match the wildcard). Assuming you have enough free RAM, Windows will cache that data because it has been accessed recently; this is why the second search is so much faster.[/quote]

[quote user="Rosie Perera"]Matt, where did you find "the regular expression options...listed (i.e. 'i' 'x' 'r' and 'n')"?[/quote] Hi Rosie, as I mentioned in my post to Bradley, I had read all about the Logos product support of regular expressions prior to purchasing, and you can follow those links to some really neat examples. The 'i' 'x' 'r' and

[quote user="Bradley Grainger"] Regular expressions are undocumented because they're unsupported. They may work (to some degree) in the current beta (and, as you've found out, there are bugs), but they're not currently part of the official feature set. They may change or be removed in a future release. [/quote] That's really disappointing and if true

[quote user="Peter Venable"]I can't say when these will get done but I can assure you they've been added to our issue tracking system.[/quote] Peter, that's great! Just knowing that Logos understands that the syntax help needs to be written is encouraging in itself. Although I must protest that if one considers that being able to rapidly and powerfully

[quote user="Peter Venable"]So... I conclude that /(?-i)(?:[F]{1})/ather is being interpreted as if it were /(?-i)(?:[F]{1})/[/quote] Great! So, the closing '/' delimiter not only signals the end of the regular expression proper, but also, potentially, the beginning of the the regular expression modifiers.

[quote user="Peter Venable"]Yes, the slashes are delimiters, so I wouldn't expect /(?-i)(?:[F]{1})/ather to work.[/quote] Hi Peter, thank you for the reply. The query actually did work in the sense that Logos 4 accepted it as a valid query and returned 316,032 results in 149,251 articles. What I'm trying to figure out is how the Logos 4 query parser

Hello, I originally posted about this some weeks ago, but never received a response from Logos, so I'm attempting again. BDAG is missing many *many* expansions for abbreviations which appear in the BDAG abbreviation lists. The ones that do appear are great, but the benefit of the popup expansion is largely obviated if one has to continually go back

Hello, By default, regular expressions are supposed to be case sensitive. Hence, if one were searching for all instances of 'Father' or 'father', one would need to construct the regex as e.g. [Ff]{1}ather. In Logos 4, if I enter the regex /[F]{1}ather/ It returns instances of 'Father' and 'father.' Mind you, this should have nothing to do with whether

Hi all, I ran a search using the search panel using the search phrase 'r?se' on my 'Entire Library'. It took 52.60s to return 41,234 results. That seemed very slow, so I ran it again, and achieved a much faster time. It was so much faster, that I figured that something had been cached, so I restarted Logos and ran the query again. This time, it was

[quote user="Kevin A. Purcell"] Also be careful with the mentality that I find myself getting sucked into. The mentality of wanting more just because it is more. It is very tempting with a program like Logos to try to amass more books just to have more books. At least with physical books they look nice and impressive on the bookshelf in your office

[quote user="Terry Poperszky"]David, I am impressed with your use of the Logos Tools to deal with the question[/quote] Me too! Thanks David. Matt

Confirmed. On my system as well, the images referred to are mostly unreadable. Matt

[quote user="frederickharrell"] Any thoughts? [/quote] I see lags commensurate with yours on my system. I believe Logos will eventually iron these hiccups out, but for those who are used to snappier performance from their modern-day computers with other more CPU and data-intensive programs, I think it would be beneficial for Logos to officially state

[quote user="Rosie Perera"] you'd go crazy trying to report them all. Better just to say here (or in the Suggestions forum) that there is a general problem with BDAG missing a lot of hyperlinks for abbreviations and hope they do a complete pass through that resource sometime adding more hyperlinks[/quote] Agreed on the crazy part! So is it safe to assume

Hello, What's the best way to make Logos aware of a missing popup expansion? I thought maybe 'typo', but it's not really a typo in my opinion. What I'm speaking of is in the Introductory essay within the BDAG: a t.t. of the Cynic-Stoic teaching concerning virtue (q.v. 2) Both 't.t.' and 'q.v' do not expand out what they stand for as do most things in

I just had to comment on the picture that appears under your name: it's absolutely fantastic! Matt

[quote user="Joe Miller"]can't say I ever heard of the movie though[/quote] It's a good performance by both Debra Winger and Anthony Hopkins on the life of C.S. Lewis. By my standard, not a great, but certainly, an enjoyable movie. Matt

[quote user="Joe Miller"] Again, sorry my attempt to interject some humor caused you frustration. I will try and remember that for future interactions with you Matt.

[quote user="Rosie Perera"]Hope that settles the confusion.[/quote] Hi Rosie. To me, it's a vacuosly true statement that the 'engine is free' because I didn't purchase a 'free engine,' I purchased Logos 4 Platinum and per the FAQ you linked, to, my engine is different in myriad ways. In my mind (and I would argue to any rational person who visits the
