Searchable for the obvious reasons and >HTML so people with PCs, MACs or UNIX etc. can all use it. The only portable solution that I know of is to pre-build an index to all of the articles. This isn't terribly searchable, however. Anything else would require code. It may be possible to write some sort of search engine in Java... anyone know of a solution that would work for us? >I am willing to donate my time and buy the CDs but someone will have to pay >me for the media which I think is only fair!
