New feature:

In order to reduce the time for indexing, multithreaded indexing was implemented.

As part of the Admin settings, 1-10 threads are to be activated.

Available also for command line operation without limitation of the thread counts.

For details see the documentation chapter: Multithreaded indexing


New feature:

Segmentation of Japanese phrases. To be activated in Admin settings.

Segmenting 5.724 kanji (new, old and half width), hiragana, katakana and jinmeiyo Japanese character writing systems.

Available for Japanese sites with charset: Shift_JIS, EUC-JP and UTF-8


New feature:

Index CVS files. To be activated in Admin settings.

Implemented as PHP script, the converter needs no adoption to the Operating System.


New feature:

In order to index ‘OpenDocument files, the corresponding converter were integrated.

Implemented as PHP scripts, the converter need no adoption to the Operating System.

To be activated separately for spreadsheet files (.ods) and text files (.odt) in Admin settings.


New command line options:

- Erase content of database <;-erase>;

- Set ‘Last indexed’ date and time to 0000 <;-preall>;


Improved support for Japanese coded sites (charset: SHIFT_JIS, EUC-JP and UTF-8).


Template design 'Pure' reduced to 'like Google'.


Improved search algorithm: significantly reduced search time.


Improved support for Greek language:

1. Transliterate queries with Latin characters into their Greek equivalents.

   Will for example transform query input alla to find ἀλλὰ and baptismatos to find βαπτίσματος.

2. Accept Greek queries containing vowels without accents.

   Query input of letter α will be valid also for

   ἀ, ἁ, ἂ, ἃ, ἄ, ἅ, ἆ, ἇ, ὰ, ά, ά, ᾀ, ᾁ, ᾂ, ᾃ, ᾄ, ᾅ, ᾆ, ᾇ, ᾰ, ᾱ, ᾲ, ᾳ, ᾴ, ᾶ and ᾷ

   The same behavior for all other Greek vowels, as well as for the upper case vowels.

   Both options will create a tolerant result listing.


New options in 'Add site' and 'Edit site' menus:

- Enter URL of individual Sitemap

If Sitemap is not in root folder, the URL of the individual Sitemap could be entered.


New option to manipulate the result listing:

For result sorting 'By URL names' the number of results shown per domain is selectable.

Offers result presentation similar to 'Like Google', but additionally offers a selectable count of links.


Search option 'More results from this domain' not only enabled for result sorting 'Like Google', but also for 'By URL names'.


Bug fixed that prevented correct interpretation of http 301 redirects.


Bug fixed that causes invalid results for multiple word queries, which contain numbers, like 'price 25 euro'.


Bug fixed that prevented highlighting of keywords, if found in position 0 of title or full text.


Bug fixed that prevented suppressing of 'Show result scores' in Admin settings.


Bug fixed that prevented to follow the option 'temporary ignore no-index'.


Additional language file for Japanese. Thanks to Sano Tomonori.


Updated Arabic language file. Thanks to Naif Alanazi.


Updated Italian language file. Thanks to Giorgio Nanni.
