Cool.

I gave it a +lugnet, which I think (since you're just doing character
matching) will include everything and should be the same net effect on
groups shown as just feeding it a blank input box... (but does it
process slower??)

*Since* you're doing character matching (??) are there things that could
be fed that would give undesired effects? or are you doing word
matching, that is, you don't match partials.

(what would the effect of -market.sh be, in other words, would it
exclude shipping and shopping, or exclude nothing, because "sh" doesn't
exactly match any "word" (. delimited) of any group name?)

This may be something you want to explain further on the page (or is it
too geeky??)

Anyway, cool beans, man!

Try one of these:
