- What is the ordering of the returned "hit" list from an index search
- against an index built on the NEXT? I know that on a NEXT one can control
- the sort order of this return list, and that one of the options is a simple
- weighting algorithm. Does Gopher utilize this?
-
- A second question is the "pager" used to present documents in the Unix
- interface. Has any thought been given to having a Gopher pager environment
- variable or storing the pager to be used in the .gopherrc file? Hiliting the
- hits from an index search only works with "more" or with the appropriate
- flags on "less", and one might not want this as one's default Unix PAGER.
