i like the idea of requiring the user to add wildcards explicitly, but if you favor about backward compatibility, one suggestion would be to add " " when you want exact matches, so a search for lim would be (*lim*) but a search for "lim" would be (lim).. what do you think?
in this case: lim and *lim* are the same "lim" are exact matches lim* are beginning with lim *lim are ending with lim
we keep backwards compatibility and add the option to exact matches, in newer versions of deken you could put a hint "put quotes if you want exact matches! see the docs for more examples on wildcards usage"

i think it would help a lot if a search term like "lim" would only return exact matches.

i'd like to require the user to add wildcards explicitely.
