Hi Steffen,

I downloaded perlindex and tkpod from Active State (I am running on Windoz XP) and tried them out. perlindex -index created the indexes (at c:\ ). I tried tkpod, but the search failed because it could not find the indexes. Checking around I believe that perlindex is not recognizing windows correctly and also some config settings are not set right on my Active state perl.

I can probably hack it up and get it to work, but I noticed on your website you have a hacked up version already. Would it be closer to what I need, or should I hack up my own?

Thanks -Eugene

UPDATE- I found a patched version of perlindex (CPAN bugs area) that works with Windoz. It fixes the missing Config settings and TTY device errors on windows.

I also have tkpod mostly working except for some problems with Config again, but it looks like it will do most of what I need. Thanks
