I KNOW that I'm missing something which should be obvious. I have tags which I want to exclude from genres in generating a .MOBI catalog. For example, tag

02 Fiction

has some uses, but pretty much wastes catalog space; I have more descriptive sub-categories. I no longer use a + tag for Already Read, but didn't think that would matter. I do want to include 02 Fiction.Mystery, 02 Fiction.F&SF, 02 Fiction.F&SF.Alternate History, etc.

I thought I read the default tooltip correctly to generate the catalog exclusion as either

\[02 Fiction]|\+


or

\[.02 Fiction\]|\+

to exclude the genre, but neither works. Yes, I have read the fine manual, but am just not seeing what I'm doing wrong. I'd like to exclude several tags once I figure this out. Is there a limit on the number of those? How would I write this?

THANK YOU, esteemed wizards.
Code:
02\sFiction\..*
it could match all the contents with string 02 Fiction.

all of this
Code:
include 02 Fiction.Mystery, 02 Fiction.F&SF, 02 Fiction.F&SF.Alternate History
hope it'll be helpful to you.
