Edward, Maybe you'd be interested in adding full text indexing and search to Leo? Or, adding support for a full text indexing and search engine (like Recoll, my preference). Such support would require something like the following: * A way for recoll to (access and then) associate indexed words with a specific Leo nodes (during indexing). * A way for recoll to cause Leo to display a specific node, ideally with found words highlighted, during (after) search. Recoll already works in a somewhat similar fashion for mbox files--it understands the mbox header which separates emails in an mbox file (during indexing), and then invokes a simple email reader (it is well known, but I always forget the name--maybe nmail??) to display specific emails. If you are interested, I can try to provide more information and put you in touch with the developer of Recoll. I suspect you would enjoy working with him. As an aside, this would take the place of the home grown project I'm (very slowly) working on, to create a Linux based replacement for askSam.
