Hey, what a coincidence - I was just about to write a note saying something along the lines of "now that the speed issue has been addressed, the biggest remaining shortfall is..." and you went and addressed it before I finished writing the post! ;-) It would be nice if there was some way of highlighting the matching terms in the document; however, I can't see how you would be able to do that. Alternatively, as each matching page is displayed with "C-S-n", perhaps you could display at the bottom of the page the matches on that page with a certain amount of context - (e.g. - 10 words on either side of each match). That would let the reader find the matches more easily on that page. - Bill
