+ mnoGoSearch is a full-featured search engine software for intranet and internet
+servers,
+ distributed under the GNU license. mnoGoSearch has number of unique features,
+which makes
+ it appropriate for a wide range of application from search within your site to a
+specialized
+ search system such as cooking recipes or newspaper search, ftp archive search,
+news articles search,
+ etc. It offers full-text indexing and searching for HTML, PDF, and text documents.
+mnoGoSearch
+ consists of two parts. The first is an indexing mechanism (indexer). The purpose
+of indexer is
+ to walk through HTTP, FTP, NEWS servers or local files, recursively grabbing all
+the documents
+ and storing meta-data about that documents in a SQL database in a smart and
+effective manner.
+ After every document is referenced by its corresponding URL, meta-data collected
+by indexer is
+ used later in a search process. The search is performed via Web interface. C CGI,
+PHP and Perl
+ search front ends are included.
