Yes, they seem to have gone to a Google-style search system, which
ignores the non-alphanumeric characters. Extremely disappointing.

ACCU's usefulness appears to have taken a dive.

Yes. I think they fixed a few problems, one was that their own canned
searches were failing due to escaped characters in the search string,
like \' and such. So their one-click for Beginner's C turned up nothing
because the actual search string was "beginner\'s C".

I also couldn't find any feedback link to even register complaints
about it.
