For instance, looking for : EuGTK crash will give me a lot of stuff I have to sift out, since I'd be interested in: EuGTK crash .except. linux so as not to be concerned with linux crash reports,as I have no linux box atm. Is this feasible or desirebla? CChris ps: does anyone know if Northern Light advanced search engine (that was nlresearch.com or something) is back online for general public access? That was the most impressive, useful stuff I've ever seen in this field. It went down in 2001 I think following a buyout.
