% How are you doing the search if not with a database?  What is your logic

Very, very simple stuff.  The list of directories and files is held in an
array (a separate process uses File_Find->maptree() to make it after any
updates and writes the serialized array to a cache file, and then I read
it in) and I just want to do a text match.  At the moment I'm using
preg_grep but that just got a little unweildy because the next requirement
was for 'or' separated by spaces, so I quickly explode(' ')d the input
and now loop through the search array but I really don't want to have to
write a boolean parser (did it for class in college; that was enough :-)

Hmmm...  Does this sound applicable?  What does lucene search?
