False positives in Help Browser

[readme]

I wasn’t so sure at first and was just wondering why I got so many hits for things that didn’t belong there, but now I’m pretty sure it’s a bug (5.3 preview 0214, but noticed in previous versions as well).

Searching for Channel, among correct ones, gives all these results on top:

Among results for Compute

And because I ran out of ideas, this happens when searching for “internet” :)
For intern, at first nothing

interne

internet

I can somehow see similarities between Intersect and Internet, how is the string comparison done in the Help Browser search? Seems a bit off.

It seems that the new fuzzy search is not working properly

We disabled fuzzy search for now (upcoming build). We’ll give this another shot later after making sure that we integrated some more intelligence that was present in the beta node browser. We’ll give a heads up when there is more to test.

The guys went off to refine the search algorithm.
It seems to me that as help patches grow, the browser will need to be rethought. I really miss being able to enable only one package in search. But I pray that with the new search half of the problems will go away.

If node + helpbrowser were using the same fuzzy search and it’s still enabled for the helpbrowser, yeah - seems like it. Thanks for the link
