Thanks Yonik for the reply.
  
  What I want is to to index a set of text documents (about 200 .txt  files) in 
windows invironment so I can search in them. What I am doing  is actually 
evaluating different search or indexing tools. 
  
  Thank  you.

The first few steps to what?
First, figure out if you want straight lucene-java, or another
application using lucene.

Lucene is a library that helps you write applications with full-text search.
Nutch uses Lucene, and adds web site crawlers and indexers, lets you
search the index, and is massively scalable (it's google-like)
Solr is a search server built on Lucene with a customizable schema,
highlighting, faceted browsing & web service-like interfaces (think
database, but full-text oriented).

So: web search => Nutch
      other search => Solr (no need for custom code)
      other, other search => Lucene (roll your own around Lucene)
