I'll look at your URL in a moment, but as I really like your ideas
about stopwords, I need to know about the availability for the Win32
platform... One of the fixes that I read about for Win32 had to do
with a datatype that turned out to be a bug, but that would just be
ignored on Unix, although it would affect search results.

TIA,

Jon S. Jaques

> 	1. SWISH++ now stores the list of stop-words in the generated

> 	   Previosuly, using a stop-word in a query would always yield
> 	   0 results since the stop-word isn't in the index.  After
> 	   thinking about it, this is just plain stupid.

> 	   performed.

> 	4. Added default values to usage messages.
