Description-en: CGI search interface and indexers using Xapian
This package contains:
- the "omega" CGI application which provides a customisable web interface for
searching Xapian databases.
- the "omindex" tool for indexing a directory tree of documents into a Xapian
database in a form suitable for searching with omega.
- the "scriptindex" indexer, which takes a simple text input format
representing documents as a set of fields, together with an "index script"
file specifying actions to be performed on each field, and indexes the
documents into a Xapian database.
- some example scripts for converting data from different sources into a form
suitable for processing with "scriptindex".
