I created this to search lengthly Hacker News comment threads on the fly.

One good example is the monthly "Who is Hiring?" post which can often exceed 800 replies.

It was designed with a goal of being unobtrusive to the original HN theme.

Tips:

- Search fields obey most of JavaScript's RegExp syntax so you can use things like the pipe operator (|)

- Begin a search field with a dash to make it a negative search result (-)

- You may need to escape characters such as $ with a \

- Pressing Esc on your keyboard will clear a field quickly

- Threads with >300 replies have a 0.5 second delay between your last key press and DOM update

- Usernames are included in the searches
