Please take this as decided. I do accept that. But that does not mean such an alternative can not be valuable too. New users will probably mostly use that approach to begin with. What I have tried to show is that it is quite easy to setup. And flexible. Since I did most of the work for another purpose it is already done. (Nearly. I need to automate some more things, though.) At the moment I wonder how a search engine can be integrated with what Nic is trying to do and the work on the Info index that Eli has done.
