That should be easily done, in principle I could also allow the modification of the number of highlights returned (currently max 5). > 4.

Currently not a problem, and when it becomes a problem I think I prefer to just cap the result set. Using other (http) search engines showed me that everything not on page 1 is probably not relevant anyway and if I would offer [1] people could refine the search to be more relevant. > otherwise - keep up the good work!
