It's free, fast, and everyone has it. Non-techies are probably as familiar with that as with anything else. Searching 40 files is no big deal. Perhaps he doesn't know that the files can be indexed so that the index is searched, not the files individually.

Sean Fosmire Sent: Sunday, September 25, 2005 4:24 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [NetLawyers] Re: I'm looking for a search engine for a text-oriented CD I want to publish I did some research on this point a little while ago and concluded that there is nothing suitable on the market right now. It used to be that AltaVista personal, or whatever it was called, would do the trick quite nicely. My proposed solution would be to include evaluation versions of dtSearch and X1, and the freeware Google Desktop, and encourage the users to copy the files to the hard drive if either of the latter are used, since only dtSearch can handle files on CD media. Forty files is not all that much volume. I would also convert the WP files to PDF in the interest of wider access. --- In [email protected], "A.J.
