You point out a distinction that we should make clear.

There is a google search of the www.jsoftawre.com website. This is
currently the search on the www.jsoftware.com home page.

There is a google search of the jsoftware wiki pages. This is increasingly
the most important search and it is not currently directly accessible. The
wiki main page search seems to be titles only so isn't very useful.

Both these searches should be front and center.

We should probably add a wiki search to the home page. And perhaps these 2
searches can be added to the wiki main page.
