Problem Definition

Code search currently does not allow you to use modifiers + operators. 

As shown in the below example, if I use the NOT operator + the "path:" modifier, the search will not be parsed. And will ignore the NOT, causing the search to find the path:pta on the example below:

Suggested Solution

Allow code search to search using both operators and modifiers

 # Search for the word "text" everywhere EXCEPT on the path directory "test".

text NOT path:test
