Using Within (Delimiters)

The w/ proximity operator controls the region within which a match for your query must occur. It will usually default to sentence proximity if the query does not specify otherwise. You can place the w/ anywhere in the query.

Here is a list of proximities you can use:

w/line

within a line

w/sent

within a sentence

w/para

within a paragraph

w/page

within a page

w/all

within a whole document

w/N

within N characters

w/REX

within a regular expression

Examples:
