schlenk 2006-06-01: These two scripts provide a simple search facility for the wiki based on the xapian package. It could easily be extended into a website providing a better fulltext search for the Tcl'ers wiki.

Example usage

  • First get the wikit.gz file, then run the indexer on the file.
  • Start searching:
