search engine swish-e

[m.w.chang]

I don't know whether it bkocked you before.

the "exclude hostname" issue - that a site could be accessed from 
multiple domain names. Will namazu be able to handle it with basic 
setup? not for htdig. you need to well-versed in url_part_aliases. and 
there is no enough examples in her website. that's the biggest mountain 
before me.

biggest problem is: I didn't quite know how to describe the problem, 
wiht my limited english. I suspect that even the programmers themselves 
had problem documenting these things in plain english, and hence the 
lack of examples.
