But this seems to be a little bit outdated, too.

Ah ok, the data is stored in and fetched from the xapian index. This
looks good. So highlighting can be done.

Another feature that I cannot find is, if a fuzzy query is possible in
xapian? (So that e.g. "gna linxu" does find "gnu linux" but gives it a
lower rating.)
