Ask PG: How many lines of Arc for a search on Hacker News?

[knarf]

Perhaps I'm just to blind to see it, but there seems to be no search around here.. I mean "I search might prove usefull.."

First off, I don't mean this to sound snide towards the original poster.

If you could use search, you could easily see all of the "there's no search, use http://searchyc.com or google for site:news.ycombinator.com" comments. It's a question that keeps returning...because there's no search on the main page. And it's not in the FAQ, despite being a rather frequently asked question. (Nor is it in the little help link next to this window.)

Perhaps there could be a button that says "Search" and links to searchyc.com.

Meanwhile use http://searchyc.com/

thanks - Still I wonder why it's not part of Hacker News and the faq doesn't say anything about it.
