Thank you. I ended up using Haystack but I appreciate your insight.

I also found that piece of code when I needed to implement search - it
was confusing so I ended up with my own approach that was easier to
understand and simpler at least to me - I pasted an example of live code
here: http://dpaste.org/KYhUq/
The searching piece of code is in the form_valid()
There are a number of ways you can use it. Must straight-forward is to
use built-in views with a customized template:

You can get a bit more advanced by using the various search forms with
your own view:

Does it provide instructions on connecting it to a search form? Dumb
question, but sometimes documentation can be lacking.

I've used Haystack with Whoosh: http://haystacksearch.org/. It's
straight-forward, well documented, and mimics the Django ORM. No need to
parse the query yourself or anything like that, just pass the raw input
to Haystack and enjoy delicious search results :)
