No, not if using the spider.pl.  IndexOnly is when reading the file
system.  When using spider.pl (i.e. -S prog) it's up to the program to
control what docs are passed to swish-e for indexing.

IIRC, NoContents will work with -S prog, but it's not really worth using
-- just filter the content down to nothing (or maybe just a newline may
be required) instead of sending the entire doc to swish just to be
ignored.

BTW -- a lot of sites (easily found with google) give this example:

  IndexOnly .html
  NoContents .jpg .mov .gif

which won't work since swish-e only looks at .html files.  That is,
swish-e checks IndexOnly before looking at NoContents.
