[sword-devel] Search error in PocketSword for ancient Greek text

Hi,
     In the past, when I have tried searching Greek text in PocketSword, it causes an error. I seem to recall, that it went something like this. If I put the full Greek word in, it won't find the word, but if I enter part of the Greek letters of a word in, then it will find the word. It seems to, for some reason, not like the Greek "s" suffix. I think, it may even be possible for me to enter a word and only leave out the last Greek character "s", and it can find the word. But if I add the "s", then it cannot find the word. Quite a lot of Greek words, by the way, end with an "s".
     I have searched Old Testament Greek text this way. Such as the Septuagint (LXX). It was in order to see how certain Hebrew words/concepts translate into Greek. And perhaps vice a versa.
