Did you read this on the plannerlove.com wiki? I posted my swish-e setup there.

I do have a function to query the index, but it's real basic atm.

I do have plans to make this better. All this does is give me the basic
information about which files match.


(defvar wjs/planner-search-command
  "/usr/bin/swish-e"
  "Command used to search Planner pages.")

(defvar wjs/planner-search-index-file
  "/home/johnsu01/indexfiles/planner.index"
  "Index used to search Planner pages.")

(defun wjs/planner-search (query)
  "Search planner pages for QUERY."
  (interactive "sSearch query: ")
  (let ((command
         (format "%s -f %s -w %s"
                 wjs/planner-search-command
                 wjs/planner-search-index-file
                 query)))
    (switch-to-buffer
     (get-buffer-create "*Planner Search Results*"))
    (shell-command command (current-buffer))))
