What we REALLY need is a way to tie archive servers into the indexing
facilities built into the NeXT.  Then, no one has to build extensive
indices by hand.

Granted, we're talking about some more overhead for the archive machine,
and requiring that the archive machine be a NeXT, but so what?  It would
still be a very useful tool.
