Good afternoon,

I'm hunting for an open source fulltext search engine with a Perl API.  I
checked out SWISH-E and ht://Dig, and neither of them seems to support this.
I know I could write a wrapper program to call one of their binaries, but as
the application I am writing is going to get a good amount of traffic, I'd
prefer the added speed and security of a non-forking solution.  I discovered
the Swish.pm module, but this appears to be a fancy wrapper around swish-e,
and is only an alpha version with an explicit "Don't Use this for
Production" warning.  Anyone have experience using this package?

AltaVista Search may offer a solution, but I would much prefer an open
source option.

Has anyone come across or written such a fulltext engine/Perl API?

Thanks for your help.
