Now with new improved flavour, now includes Forums
Due to the unimaginable popularity that "www.brickwork.net.au" has generated and the increasing number of hits, it has been decided to turn the site into a Wiki.
The only downside is, you will have to upgrade your bookmarks.
If you got here via an external link or a redirect please bookmark this page.
All the old topics from brickwork.net.au are still here, with lots more planed for the future, some have been rearranged to make it easier for searching.
Brikiwiki is easier to navigate and searching for a topic or subject is a breeze thanks to tags, also thanks to the language module, Brikiwiki is now available to more people.
Plus, you will get the benefit of other authors and different points of view on topics as they join up.
Bricklaying may be either a mere form of manual labour or a highly developed craft, implying a knowledge of the principles of construction and an appreciation of art. The one is a poor thing, leading its practitioners nowhere, while the other is a matter of pride, opening up great possibilities to the man of patience and skill.

+ : A leading plus sign indicates that this word must be present in every object returned.
- : A leading minus sign indicates that this word must not be present in any row returned.
By default (when neither plus nor minus is specified) the word is optional, but the object that contain it will be rated higher.
< > : These two operators are used to change a word's contribution to the relevance value that is assigned to a row.
( ) : Parentheses are used to group words into subexpressions.
~ : A leading tilde acts as a negation operator, causing the word's contribution to the object relevance to be negative. It's useful for marking noise words. An object that contains such a word will be rated lower than others, but will not be excluded altogether, as it would be with the - operator.
* : An asterisk is the truncation operator. Unlike the other operators, it should be appended to the word, not prepended.
" : The phrase, that is enclosed in double quotes ", matches only objects that contain this phrase literally, as it was typed.
