Description Tug D CLA 2014-03-27 08:34:56 EDT 
An interestin feature might be to add, for example the character - to exclude the following word from the search.
"nom_var -id" would search for lines containing nom_var but not id.

Kinda the same way google works when you don't want some terms. It would make it an easy and fast way to exclude rather than using a complex RegEx.
