Ransacker

Ransacker is a scriptable, incrementally-double-indexed search engine written in python. It''s scriptable in that you can index any text with any key. This makes it easy to index content (&"pages&") stored in databases, file systems, the web, etc. It can index incrementally. This means you can add content or update the entry for a particular page without touching the rest of the index. It''s double-indexed, meaning that not only does every word have a list of pages, every page has a list of words. This is used for the incremental indexer, but also allows you to determine which pages have the most in common. This will allow ransacker to produce &"what''s related&" pages.
