Hi, If your application will be doing search and retrieval, there's a good chance something similar has already been developed that can be used as a starting point.
http://www.perl.com/pub/q/resources is a good starting point for finding out what's already available in perl. An excellent intro for adding search functionality to perl apps is at http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2003/09/25/searching.html. There are some good additional references on the last page.
