You can see there that I've got the "Search Accuracy" slider set to 0.1. This indicates that it will not be searching for just "anithing" exactly. But it will also catch a certain number of missed characters. In this case, it's found "anything" and considers that to be close enough.

The accuracy is not simple in the sense that 0.1 means that only 1 out of ten characters must match. It's actually more like 6 out of 7. So, generally it will only help with longer words. The effect of the accuracy may change over time.
