RuterSearch

RuterSearch was a project I started in 1999 after being disappointed with a search Perl script I purchased. I bought Perl for Dummies and began to learn Perl myself to implement my own search script. It was a great learning experience, and a pretty nice lightweight search script was the result; I sold it on Qwerks for awhile at $25 per license. Eventually, I discontinued development on RuterSearch; however, the original source code and documentation are still available here for historical purposes. I have released the code under the GPL license (if stated differently anywhere else, please disregard).

    Is it as fast as Google?
