Exactly. My SP and Jade (DSSSL engine) ports are just waiting for such a category to be formally approved. Glimpse and isearch should at least have a cross reference in database if they don't actually live there. Incidentally, a new version of Isearch is on the verge of being released that is considerably faster--orders of magnitude, not just little tweaks. :) Unfortunately, there are still some bugs with index merging, possibly FreeBSD specific, that I'm trying to shake out before it is released. -john
