+SEARCHING
+
+The Mir code offers no internal search facilities, rather, the design
+expects the use of an external program to crawl and index the static
+site.  One (recommended) tool for doing this is htdig
+(http://htdig.org), which generates static databases of the site
+content and then accesses those databases through a very fast CGI
+program written in C.  In the scripts directory, a perl CGI script 
+which wraps calls to htsearch is provided (scripts/search.pl) which
+will allow searching based off of media type.  (This is possible
+because the standard templates will include META keywords like
+hasAudio, hasVideo, etc.)
