Is there a WAIS server for Perl?
Is there a WAIS server for Perl?
Rumor has it that there are WAIS servers out there for comp.lang.perl
these days, but I haven't used them. Kevin Gardner <gardner@zinc.csb.yale.edu>
offers the following: For WAIS server info, check on the gopher hole
at mudhoney.micro.umn.edu, port 70. They've got a rather extensive
list of WAIS servers at this gopher->WAIS gateway, including a c.l.p.
archive server. I don't know how up to date the server actually is,
as the articles I pulled up from there were all dated from '91.
Bill Middleton <wjm@feenix.metronet.com> offers this:
"I have setup a perl script retrieval service and WaisSearch here at
feenix. To check it out, just point your gopher at us, and select the
appropriate menu option. The WaisSearch is of the iubio type, which
means you can do boolean searching. Thus you might try something
like:
caller
ioctl and fcntl
grep and socket not curses
and other things to see examples of how other folks have done this
or that. This service is still under construction, but I'd like to
get feedback, if you have some time.
There's also a WaisSearch into all the RFC's and some other fairly
nifty stuff."
