in reply to Current best practice in Perl internal search engines?

KinoSearch is good (I use it) but it will require some code writing to get the document aggregation and parsing working, especially if you have non-text (e.g. Word and PDF) docs. Swish-e (http://swish-e.org/) is what powers search.cpan.org (last I knew). It has a binary tool for indexing, and a Perl API (SWISH::API) for searching. There are also out-of-the-box .cgi scripts for searching. Disclaimer: I am a developer for both KinoSearch and Swish-e. :)
