I would like to you include a search engine with the JDK.  I am

EVALUATION Jacek.Ambroziak@east has written a search applet using the JavaHelp index facility. We should start with that and go from there. doug.kramer@Eng 1999-09-07 We now have search capability on java.sun.com. It would be useful to include search capability in the download docs bundle. ###@###.### 2002-02-20 The deployment part of the JDK doc bundle already includes DevaSearch for indexed search: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/contents.html ###@###.### 2004-08-06
