the mailing list archive. I am sure everyone here agrees that the list
archive is one, if not the only one,


Would like to point the second resource with plenty of valuable info on pd:

Dear list,

I would like to re-post the below mail regarding the search feature of
the mailing list archive. I am sure everyone here agrees that the list
archive is one, if not the only one, of the most comprehensive
collections of Pd knowledge that comes from more than a decade of
fruitful discussions and insight know-how. It would be great if there
was a way to reliably search this valuable data.

Hi,

I'm not using the build-in search tool of the list because I find its
answer irrelevant in the most case.
But I'm using a generic web search tool and say it I want to search only on
http://lists.puredata.info/ .

This can be done with Google with something like :
site: http://lists.puredata.info/
 keywords

The results are *a lot* more relevant to my eyes.

[PD] searching the email archive for common words

[Peter P.]

Hi list,

the biggest wealth of information about Pd might lie in the mailing list
archives at http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/
Searching these archives for words which appear very often, such as
"extended" "Gem" etc will return messages from the search algorithm,
that these words are excluded from the results as there are too many
occurrences. That might make sense, but renders the usability of the
search algorithm very useless for certain requests.

Could there be a way to improve this? Or are there already other methods
of searching the mailing list archive, besides downloading the raw
700+MB archive?

thanks,
P
