Re^2: looking for a good Perl-way for implementing website search

I don't see any reason to use something else

I know Swish-e, and yes, it is great. It is, however, not "the simplest thing that could work." Or, is it?

Since it is a C program, I can't implement it on a web host unless they have it installed there (although, my new host -- http://www.dreamhost.com -- does seem to allow compiling ones own programs).

It's almost certainly simpler than any of the others you mentioned. They are more like toolkits for building a custom search engine. Swish-e is ready-to-use and complete.	[reply]
