I knew how to do it but I *thought* it would return a lot of hits from |
| 48 |
anything containing the letter "q". Later on when I had a little bit of |
| 49 |
time to sit here, I tried it. It only returned the one result. Still |
| 50 |
sort of surprised about that. I actually just ran equery b q . Neato |
| 51 |
! It has a microscope and read my mind. o_O |
