searching and indexing engine [Q]
Hi!

Does anyone knows of a free searching engine I could use to add "search
possibility" to an intranet? I mean, I used Excite I didn't like it very
much and tryed Infoseek and love it, but to expensive...

If it was something that I could control from python that would be really
nice... And better if it could index not just plain text files but also PDF.

Thanks in advance.

/B
