How about the options to the find command? In particular,

- find string "user interface"
will find the entire phrase, even if it is embedded inside other 
words - for example, it will find "newuser interface".

- find whole "user interface"
will find the entire phrase, but only as whole words - it will find 
"user interface", but not "newuser interface".
