Solr, which is built on top of lucene and adds highlighting among other features, gets close to what you want. Check out:

But here's what I think you can do (although I haven't tried this exactly, so caveat emptor). Document doc = new Document(); doc.add("text", line1); doc.add("text", line2); doc.add("text", line3); writer.add(doc); Now, when searching, you can get the document back and String[] lines = doc.getValues(); At this point, lines[0] contains line1, lines[1] contains line2, etc. Perhaps something with Highlighter would work here, or you can use a MemoryIndex to manipulate them.... But you have some issues here. What is the "correct" line to display if you search on, say, "Erick AND Tanya" and "Erick" is on one line but "Tanya" is on another? Perhaps it would help if you posted a statement of the actual problem you're trying to solve, there may be other, easier approaches.....
