I got tired of this too. I've put up an experimental web page for us
to try out to search the OSH Park shared projects.<br>
If you go to the URL below there is this prompt followed by a text
box:<br>
<br>
"<span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Helvetica
Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size:
14.399999618530273px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;
font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 20px;
orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px;
text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto;
word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;
background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); display: inline !important;
float: none;">Search OSH Park Shared Projects for this regular
expression:"</span><br>
<br>
If you type something into that and then "enter", all the URLs of
all the shared projects containing that expression with any mix of
upper or lower case *on single line* between the project's label
and it's permalink will be shown. If there are no matches a msg to
that effect is shown. The "return to home" link goes back to the
triembed.org page, not this test page. If you put something like a
single blank in the form it will take a long time to come back with
a list of every project URL and my ISP will eventually become
irritated by the amount of resources I'm chewing up on my domain
server. <br>
<br>
Examples:<br>
1) This regex will return a single URL for a breakout for an
MSP430 chip in a VQFN package: <br>
msp430.*qfn<br>
2) This regex will return a handful of URLs for all the projects
mentioning MSP430:<br>
msp430<br>
<br>
<a href="http://triembed.org/test.html">http://triembed.org/oshpark.html</a><br>
<br>
Again, this just searches lines. It won't find an expression that
straddles a line break.<br>
<br>
This operates off a cached, compressed copy of the shared project
HTML wget'd from OSH Park a few days ago. If this isn't redundant
and proves useful (and doesn't annoy Laen at OSH Park) I'll think
about next steps. In the meantime do not forward this to Slashdot.
