syntax- searching string for an action

Hi everyone,

I would like to add an action, which helps to choose the searchwords i want. My problem is, if there are similar words, the action chooses all of them, but I want just one. for example:

there are:

abc

abcd

abcds

blabli

my expression for the searching string is:

= '("abc"|"blabli")'

this expression chooses all abc* strings, but i just want  abc only, can somebody help me please?

Would you be able to share a sample to show where it isn't working?
