Hi Zhe-Xi,
I forgot to add that it would be *great* if you could revive some of this work! Full text indexing would be a great feature to have in Squeak. So feel yourself encouraged! ;-)
Cheers, Bernhard

Thanks for showing me the lights. I will study carefully the work done by Scott and then maybe a integrated search engine could be built on top of that. bpi wrote:
In 2002 Scott A. Crosby implemented full text search for Squeak. Unfortunately it was never integrated and Scott left the community. See the following post: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2002-April/037964.htm...
If you search the mailing list for posts from around that time you will probably find more information.
The code seems to be on SqueakMap: http://map.squeak.org/package/6e65267d-53e0-46b0-a4dd-7cb349e18f23 and on SqueakSource: http://www.squeaksource.com/@Xjs1PWixYhd_s5Y1/nsS7RXdi
Most likely some work would be needed in order to make it run.
