[Silva-general] "silva find" in a code source?

[Kit BLAKE]

If all you want to do is filter out duplicates it's probably doable  
with view code. But not if you want more complex operations. You might  
look at the rendering code:
https://svn.infrae.com/SilvaFind/trunk/SilvaFind_templates/silvafindview.pt?revision=33349&view=markup

The guy who wrote SilvaFind will be in friday and he should be able to  
give you better advice on that level.
