CUPS 1.3: new fulltext search feature for the documents is very nice

I'm really pleased to see how well and how fast the new fulltext search
feature for localhost:631/help works.

This thing alone will be worth quite a lot of hassle should an upgrade
be causing them once the 1.3.0 final is released.

It really, really, really is very helpful to point users and customers
to -- because they now finally can find fast what they are looking for
in the documentation (or they can simply be told to search for "Known
Issues", "Using Policies", "cupstestdsc", "cupsctl", "cupsfilter" or
"Accounting")....

I wonder how you made it so fast? Are you building and keeping some sort
of cache?

Thanks a lot for this very valuable improvement!
