You're right. I forgot that the program index is relevant too. Two pages
to search isn't too much or hard work.

But I still would welcome a search capability of the whole FAQ on-line 
for the case when they word searched for wasn't in any of those two 
pages.

Oh well, I was thinking that as there is a search system for the mailing 
archives it wouldn't be too difficult to adjust it to search the FAQ...

Now I could try to put something in perl together; however my knowledge
in HTML isn't big so it wouldn't be pretty, and I'm not the one running
the server. So DJ, would you like a small perl hack for searching the 
FAQ?


Right,
