The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

\w will match anything that is alphanumeric
\W will match anything that is NOT alphanumeric.
First, \w and \W include the underscore as part of the class, and I
think he wants it treated as a separator. Second, as Scott mentioned
before, there is no single standard for what is allowed in a regex

the version you are using. Things like \W or \d are Perl extensions,
and while some utilities support them to a various degree, not
everything does so I tend to just avoid them and use explicit
equivalents that work everywhere.
