I don't know the answer, but you may want to look into desktop applications
that use Lucene as their backend. There is one that works under windows quite
well that does exactly what you want... i'm thinking whether to port that to
u*x or maybe reinvent the wheel in a more unix friendly way (eg, without
needing to have Office dlls installed,etc).
