Dear Wilhelm,
Please, read the plugin docs before posting such a mail which hurts
me and don't tell the truth.
You search for "abbreviated" in the quick search mode i.e. through
the headers only: there are indeed 3 headers in the dictionary which
contain "abbreviated". This "intelligent" search takes about 120
milliseconds.
If you uncheck the Quick Search box to search deeper, you will not
find 17 entries but 21 (145 "contextual" found lines when you find
only 43).
Why this difference?
Your stack does not search the actual dictionary but through custom
properties you have implemented (BTW a good idea for speed).
Resources Picker searches always the "real" dictionary.
As youts, the plugin provides full links to the involved entries. Did
not you see that too?
Do you allow me to add that Resources Picker is a "research centre",
providing many other search types than through the Docs: mailing
lists, Rev On line, RevNet, customisable Web database (for instance,
did you try to search for "Searchdocs" in the Web database? :-), all
the web, etc.
Regards,
Eric Chatonet.

Hi Eric.
I appreciate your open-mindedness and your valuable contributions
to the Rev community.
Hope I am not too "rude" when I direct your attention to my
"SearchDocs" stack.
This documentation search stack indeed allows simultaneous searches
(as an option) of Dictionary, Faqs, and Topics - the Cookbook is
not included.
Search time through the about 2000 XML-files takes an average of
200 milliseconds, so there is no need "to get some coffee" while
having to wait.
This search time includes displaying all found lines with the
searchstrings colored (as in your plugin) and providing full links
to the involved XML files at the same time (so you can
instantaneously view the found lines in full context).
I did a test search with your and my tool seaching the Dictionary
for the term "abbreviated". The results differ, because you might
apply a different search algorithm?
Result for the "Resource Picker":
"3 related entries found" (containing 32 lines according to my count)
Result for "Searchdocs XML 2.6":
"43 found lines in 17 XML-files"
