My understanding is that part of the problem is that sorting a dataset based upon regular expression (doesn't matter what algorithm you use) creates a rather large tree of possibilities that is largely impractical to sort, at least not without a lot of overhead. My compromise for the searches that I'm planning on using is to allow regex searches of "search results" from the catalog. This requires a bit more patience, as it is an unindexed search...

And reasoning as to why would be appreciated. ;) -Morten _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
