^similarTo( item, count[, start, list-item-prefix, list-item-suffix, end] )^

The HTML Export element ^similarTo^ locates notes that appear similar to a given note.

The query will find up to count notes, but may find fewer, and exports a list of notes it finds.

Similarity is based on several factors, including:

the text of the note
the note title
any text contained in user attributes

In addition, weighting is applied for:

notes having the same prototype
notes having roughly similar amounts of text

The results are based on the Similar Notes view. The same matching is also available as a query - #similarTo.

New item objects source and destination may be used to indicate from where data used within the arguments is drawn.
