It searches by gismu and the 3 rafsi fields. It doesn't search alphabetically (linearly), but for any substring. When you click on a result it shows you the meaning, place structure and also creates buttons to cross-reference other gismu. You can select to search by a specific rafsi as well if you need to. It's all best explained by the screenshot: http://kissme.sourceforge.net/JavaGismu/javagismu.jpg You need swing to view it, I don't use a browser to view it, I just make sure the swing.jar is my CLASSPATH variable and use the JDK directly, like: /usr/jdk118/bin/appletviewer http://kissme.sourceforge.net/JavaGismu/applet_test.html The program can very easily be converted to a java application, let me know if anyone wants to try it that way.
