Names (pseudonymes) of messages authors (case-insensitive).
"*"
appended to a name will search for any author's name
starting with the entry and having any trailing part.
![]() | @s ignores author s. |
Case-insensitive words or text expressions that must be searched for.
"*"
can be used inside any topic. It then matches any string, possibly empty.
For instance "SI*P" will match "SIP", "SIVP", "soap", etc.
"?"
will match a single character
in the same way.
For instance "S*P" will match "SIP", "SVP", "SoP", "s1p", etc.
"*" and "?" can't be used at the head of authors or topics.
Since they have special meanings, "& | ( ) ~ < >" characters are not (or badly) supported in topics.
![]() | @s processes only one topic . |
Positive integer (entered as text): maximum age of messages to be selected, expressed in number of days up to now.
![]() | @s ignores NDays . |
! | Search only in subjects. When the search pattern ends
with "!" ,
the search is restricted to the subject of messages posted and
archived on the mailing lists. Otherwise, both body and subject of messages
are scanned. |
> | authors ">"
topics separator.
When no authors are specified, ">" is not required. |
< | topics "<"
maximum messages age
separator. When no messages max age is specified,
"<" is not required. |
(..) | Grouping parentheses |
| | OR conjunction between topics or authors. |
& | AND conjunction between topics. Meaningless between authors, since each message has only one author. |
~ | "NOT" modifier to exclude some topics. Can't be used for authors. |
"..." | When there is at least one space in any part of the search pattern (authors, topics, messages age), the whole pattern must be specified between single or double quotes. |

forum, starting from 2018.dev@lists.scilab.org
archives, starting from 2014.![]() | uman .. @ requires an active internet connexion. |
uman .. @
is console-quiet.
None of possible search criteria is mandatory, but giving at least one of them is more efficient ;-). When several types of criteria are provided (author, topic, message age), only messages fulfilling all of them are selected.
uman .. @
does not take into account any
other possible uman
options. Noticeably,
uman .. L##
language option is ignored.
![]() | Whenever Scilab users specific communities would use an active
non-english and non-french speaking mailing list with public archives,
please get in touch with uman 's author in order to
possibly implement the L## language option
within the @ one. |
