You can use this form for searching for documents in at my site, using . (Surprisingly, some of my pages are in the global index but not in the Finnish index.) Write some keyword(s) after the data prefilled in the input area:


The search uses Evreka service, which has the user interface in Finnish, but it is similar to AltaVista. This means e.g. that you can use "wildcards" in search strings (e.g. portug* means any string which begins portug, case insensitively). (Cf. to AltaVista search language help.) You can also (reset) the form.
