Oh, wouldn't you like four ? BTW, I think it's pretty amazing if /.../ works.
For the original use case at the top of the thread, you could make a global macro ($:/tags/Macro) with: \define halfmonth() 201909(0[1-9]|1[0-5]) and then use this in the advanced search filter: [regexp:create<halfmonth>] You could obviously modify this "halfmonth" to just look for 01 thru 15, and then use a regexp preceding it to look for the year and month. So you could use it throughout the year.
