Steve,

How do you want us to do multi-word (i.e., phrase) KEYWORDS?
Do you want us to put them in quotes
(e.g.: "Star Wars" "young Obi-Wan Kenobi" "Luke Skywalker (2000)")?
Or do you want us to separate them with commas
(e.g.: Star Wars, young Obi-Wan Kenobi, Luke Skywalker (2000))?

Just use commas.

I need to know because I want to make sure that whatever KEYWORDS
I remember to put into the DAT files I make are used the way I wanted
them to be used.  For example, for the WW Pistol and WW Rifle,
I wanted them the be locatable in the parts reference whenever
you use the two-word phrase "wild west".  Unfortunately, when you updated
the LUGNet parts reference, you split this phrase into two _separate_ KEYWORDS,
"wild" and "west", which isn't the way I wanted.  I just wanted to avoid
this problem in the future.

Currently, the search engine does a text search on the entire entry from
the 0 KEYWORDS command (if a part has multiple 0 KEYWORDS lines, the lines
are concatenated for the search engine's database).  So there is no
inherent separation.

The flip side is that the search engine only does single-word searches,
there's no way (AFAIK) to search for a multi-word keyword.

As to the way the keywords are listed for part 30141 (see
<http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/minifig/accessory/>), the KEYWORDS
meta-commands for this part have no multi-word separation.

How was the Partsref Builder program supposed to suss that 'wild' and
'west' were meant to go together?
