It's a good idea. I have created a first thread to discuss the local search engine here: https://list.orgmode.org/87a5ev31ul....@k-7.ch/T/#u > Let me clarify. > Unless an indexer is very simple, we do not really want it in Org - it > will put a lot of extra load on maintainers. > > On the other side, we do not want to tie things to some project that > may fade out in 10 years into the future. > > The way I see search engine support in Org mode is either: > > 1.

I have replied to this part on my first reply to the thread about the search engine, at "Remarks #1": https://list.orgmode.org/878quf1ji0....@k-7.ch/T/#m2425dcfc7665e88aefcbd81800d2d83aef98cd5b For the other parts, I have take notes of your replies and will reply on the specific threads. Thank you very much for all your replies. :) Best regards ------- Gendre Sébastien
