+   or
+   <screen>
+    f "donald knuth"

+   are defined. To add one attribute you could do:
+   <screen>
+    f @attr 1=4 computer
+   </screen>
+   where we search in the title field, since the use(1) is title(4).
+   If we want to search in the author field <emphasis>and</emphasis>
+   in the title field, and in the title field using right truncation
+   it could look something like this:
+   <screen>
+    f @and @attr 1=1003 knuth @attr 1=4 @attr 5=1 computer
