Searching for "counter" works pretty well (unfortunately, "Go" is the
default when you hit enter):i see. what does "Go" mean?
there are two submit buttons underneath the search input field. "Go" directly displays the site with the highest ranking, like googles "i'm feeling lucky". "Search" shows all search results as the following link: http://wiki.puredata.info/en/Special:Search?search=counter&fulltext=Sear...
when hitting enter the first appearing submit button will be submitted. in order to change "Go" and "Search" the two buttons should be switched in the html structure. if somebody points me to the template i can change that. also the wiki might provide an option to switch the default action.

It started as a realisation of how good google.stanford.edu was at sorting search results, whereas the leading engine of then, Altavista, was barely sorting them at all. The button name probably started from a sentence like "if you're just a bit lucky, the 1st search result is exactly what you wanted"... (in Altavista, you had to be very lucky instead.)

My guess is that this is controlled by a php configuration option in
mediawiki. I couldn't find such an option though.
