+Additional search prefixes which only affect the local lei/store:
+
+  L:       match the given label
+  kw:      match the given keywords
+
+See L<lei-tag(1)> for more info on labels and keywords.
+
+Most prefixes are probabilistic, meaning they support stemming
+and wildcards (C<*>).  Ranges (such as C<d:>) and boolean prefixes
+do not support stemming or wildcards.
+The upstream Xapian query parser documentation fully explains
+the query syntax: L<https://xapian.org/docs/queryparser.html>
