Yes. It does. If the cursor is to the left of a letter, [a-zA-Z]* will match something when Minimal Match is unchecked. If Minimal Match is checked, [a-zA-Z]* will never match anything. Ever.

Because his cursor was likely at the beginning of a line of code that started with '<'. I'm sure he'll be able to verify that [a-zA-Z]* does indeed return matches for him when the cursor is placed in front of a letter before clicking "Find" (and Minimum Match is unchecked).
