Hello,

First of all, thanks for the replies. I don't really feel like putting a
wrapper around the htsearch process, it complicates the whole process
and makes it more suspectible to configuration/runtime errors. I always
liked the simplicity of htdig compared to the Altavista search engine.

Now this I call ugly. What a waste of resources... Nice idea though.

It's a designer's idea- they make your life hard sometimes... You would
think that htdig is customizable enough, yet they can still come up with
new ideas. I heard rumors about putting frameset definitions and sources
in on single page, which would be perfect for what I have in mind, but I
couldn't find anything useful. Seems like it's not more than a rumor,
wouldn't fit in the concept of html anyways.

Greetings,

Simon
