I have a bookmark which searches for:
csf OR cerebrospinal
and which has a macro called CSF defined. I use the bookmark by keying
CSF: in the search bar.
----------
When I change the search field in this bookmark to make it search for:
(csf OR cerebrospinal)
then I find this results in very few hits when I key in the macro
CSF:
-----------
Surely those two searches are logically equivalent and should give the same result? Can anyone explain why the two results are so different?

Will depend on your Everything version (and a configuration setting).
What version of Everything?

What is your exact bookmark search?
Please try the following bookmark search:
< csf | cerebrospinal >
Please make sure regular expressions is unchecked under the Search menu.

I am using Everything 1.5.0.1373a (x86).
The bookmark is exactly as follows and I get the wrong result.
(csf OR cerebrospinal)
The above result does not match:
csf OR cerebrospinal
Your suggestion to use the following works correctly:
<csf OR cerebrospinal>

Moved to the Everything 1.5 alpha forum.
Please post 1.5 alpha related questions there as answers for 1.5 questions differ greatly from 1.4 answers
Round brackets for grouping are no longer supported in Everything 1.5.
