<body><div>Not sure if this is of any interest or not, but I worked on a full text gopher search engine a few years back that I never really finished completing: <a href="https://github.com/rsayers/gophersearch">https://github.com/rsayers/gophersearch</a><br></div>
<div> </div>
<div>IIRC, the main issue was the crawler sometimes fouling up and not behaving correctly, but what it did crawl, you could search as expected.<br></div>

<div>Sure, I'd be open to that. Drop me a line off list at <a defang_rel="noreferrer" href="mailto:wesleyteal@gmail.com">wesleyteal@gmail.com</a> if you want.<br></div>
<div> </div>
<div>A caveat: I'm not a particularly proficient programmer (another reason I haven't given a <br></div>
<div>gopher search engine a go). I have a humanities background with only a few CS-type <br></div>
<div>courses.<br></div>

<div>The thing about Veronica-2 -- searching basd on titles<br></div>
<div>is that titles have to be have useful titiles :)<br></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Often that may (or may not) be the case :)<br></div>
<div> </div>
<div>And in either case you tend to end up searching for<br></div>
<div>resources (by title) rather then by resources (by content).<br></div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think :)<br></div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think full-text searching would complement Veronica-2 nicely IHMO<br></div>
<div>(but Cameron doesn't want to go that way... which is okay)<br></div>
<div> </div>
<div>I was thinking of utilizing whoosh[1] and related tool(s).<br></div>
