Free Pascal full text index/searcher classes committed in Lazarus svn

ХудожникMichael Van Canneyt announced his full text indexer project:
I’ve committed a file/database indexing and search engine, fpindexer, to SVN.

It was developed by Darius Blaszijk, with help from me. One of the planned uses is
to create searchable documentation. I’ve also (in a private project) used it to
implement full-text search on a database that doesn’t support that natively.

Time Track is a program written in Lazarus and tiopf to allow people to track projects (with Firebird backend)

See the lazarus full thread and you can clone the git repository

It’s a small app that sits in the tray, and can be used to manage project time.
If there is interest, I can donate it to the Lazarus community. It also serves
as a nice example of how to program Lazarus and tiOPF.

It also keeps a todo list and a list of interruptions.
(the helpdesk walks in and out of my office, which I started tracking to
prove that this practice costs me 1.5 hours a day.)

I posted the project at
http://www.freepascal.org/~michael/timetrack.zip

You’ll need tiOPF and a database server.
I use (and recommend) Firebird, but changing it to something
else takes about 2 lines of code.

The included time.sql file creates the database.
