Hello!

I'd like to know which web site search engine programs you ISP:s are
using with FreeBSD. We are using a modified version of web glimpse right
now, and we are not really satisfied with the it. It refuses to work
well with non-ascii characters, and this is not acceptable for most
non-english websites, since umlauts, etc are not found. Our
modifications fix this, but not quite well.

Anyway, before we jump in and do a revamp of the web glimpse, I'd like
to hear about other recommmendations. They can be both free or
commercial, but we need to have the program configurable in terms of how
the search results are presented, i.e. we wan't our own design, and they
are probably different for different web sites using the same binary, so
it should preferrably be configurable without altering the source.

Ideas and recommendations are welcome. Thanks for your time!
