But I have got a feeling that is unused search. What I was meaning but did not express it that search should be exposed to public. I am not sure if that namazu search engine provides good relevancy: I found this link: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/cgi-bin/namazu.cgi?query=emacs+float+&submit=Search%21&idxname=help-gnu-emacs&max=20&result=normal&sort=score Then I can see there: . Re: Inconsistency: sometimes an integer, sometimes a float and if I search for: inconsistency sometime integer sometimes float https://lists.gnu.org/archive/cgi-bin/namazu.cgi?query=inconsistency+sometime+integer+sometimes+float&submit=Search%21&idxname=help-gnu-emacs&max=20&result=normal&sort=score small mistake with "sometime" instead of "sometimes" and I do not get any result. Great is to have search engine. But people are not there, they are on Reddit, stackexchange. Would this search engine offer various hyperlinks on pages like "last searches" by using GET method, then global search engines would index it better. This way I never find Emacs mailing list as one of results when I search something related to Emacs. I find other websites.
