kbforge.com is pleased to announce the first public release of "kbforge", a new, completely free, desktop search application specifically designed for software developers. What differentiates kbforge from other desktop search programs, is its ability to assist the user in categorising the information before it is indexed. Using databases and collections of databases, kbforge can categorise information into meaningful subject matters. A host of other features and options make kbforge the ultimate tool for finding that elusive program fragment, or example or article. Unlike most other Lucene based applications, kbforge uses Lucene as the default database manager (as well as for indexing and searching). kbforge is a Java application, and possibly the first of its kind to run under Linux as well as Windows.
kbforge v1.20 can be downloaded free from http://www.kbforge.com Victor Negrin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
