AXYL-LUCENE OVERVIEW
====================

1. Synopsis
-----------
The axyl-lucene package is an adjunct to the Axyl package. It provides
Axyl with an industrial-strength search engine.

Lucene is a full-featured search engine API which is part of the Apache
project (see http://lucene.apache.org). We have taken this API and written
a daemon around it which listens on a port and provides a facility for
indexing and querying any generic text-based content. Typically this can
be used to index your website pages, but the server is strong and fast
enough to allow you to develop industrial-grade sites which provide access
to 100 million articles or so if required.
