The Flax software, which powers eClips, was developed by Lemur Consulting in Cambridge, and builds on established open-source software. Flax can build searchable indexes of millions of documents in common formats such as Microsoft Office, HTML and Adobe Acrobat PDF, which can then be searched in milliseconds using a customisable interface to meet specific needs. Flax is cross-platform and provides highly accurate and relevant results. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Computing News :: home page |
