I am perturbed that beagle has grabbed 99% of CPU time. If I kill it,
within 5 seconds another process is spawned, again grabbing 99%. I
don't even USE beagle. Is it possible to unmerge it without affecting
other programs?
If I understand correctly, I have found the following to be quite good
for indexing and rapid searching of defined directories:
app-misc/glimpse
As an added bonus, together with glimpse comes "agrep" or "almost
grep" that can search like grep with a specified number of spelling
errors.
I will unmerge beagle just to see what will happen.

pinot (http://directory.fsf.org/pinot.html) may do what you want. It
is not in portage but most of its dependencies are.

I consider that the golden rule requires that if I like a program I
must share it with other people who like it.
