title: jqGrid add custom search operator (ops object)
body: <p>how can I add search operators without intervening directly in the file <code>jquery.jqGrid.src.js</code>?</p>
  
  <p>example:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>ops: [
      {"name": "eq", "description": "equal", "operator": "="},
      {"name": "ne", "description": "not equal", "operator": "&lt;&gt;"},
      {"name": "lt", "description": "less", "operator": "&lt;"},
      {"name": "the", "description": "less or equal", "operator": "&lt;="},
      {"name": "gt", "description": "greater", "operator": "&gt;"},
      {"name": "ge", "description": "greater or equal", "operator": "&gt; ="},
      {"name": "bw", "description": "begins with", "operator": "LIKE"},
      {"name": "bn", "description": "does not begin with", "operator": "NOT LIKE"},
      {"name": "in", "description": "in", "operator": "IN"},
      {"name": "ni", "description": "not in", "operator": "NOT IN"},
      {"name": "ew", "description": "ends with", "operator": "LIKE"},
      {"name": "en", "description": "does not end with", "operator": "NOT LIKE"},
      {"name": "cn", "description": "contains", "operator": "LIKE"},
      {"name": "nc", "description": "Does not contain", "operator": "NOT LIKE"},
      {"name": "noo", "description": "is null", "operator": "IS NULL"},
      {"name": "nn", "description": "is not null", "operator": "IS NOT NULL"},
      {"name": "xx", "description": "xxx", "operator": "CUSTOM"} ]
  </code></pre>
