[DL] Searchable Index (was "Random RV&C2 quesitons [John Goff])

["Derek D. Bass" <wangenstein@mad.scientist.com>]

Well, I was thinking that if you included each word on a page only once in
that page's data index, it would cut down on the total size (and therefore,
search time). Making the data index alphabetically sorted would thwart any
hope of making sense of the text, but would still be easily queried. I don't
think a randomizer would be necessary, but I do agree that that would work,
too.
