now that you appear to have it working; another option is to do away 
with the aec, and use a global + filtered rel, so you can morph it into 
a clairvoyant search


have the same ABC buttons script the letter into a global g_search

create a calc c_search = g_search + "zzz"

redefine the self rel to be multi-parameter:

g_search ≤ name
c_search ≥ name

the portal result will initially be the same, but now you can refine the 
result by typing in the global

With some more advanced scripting and script triggers, the result can be 
made to refresh with each keystroke in the global
