It's currently set to 4. I don't even know if this is adjustable or not. However, with the current setting your can't search for things like "V8" or "G50" or "930".

I suppose reducing the number of characters could greatly increase the size of the index if words like "if" were included. Maybe there's a way to incorporate a list of words to not be indexed.

Jonathan - just doing my part to give the admins more work

I did a quick browse to see if there is an easy fix for this, but didn't find anything...
I will need to dig deeper (which means I need to have more than 5 minutes in a row to work on it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif))
It WILL be changed soon though...

cheers,

Jeroen
