+---+ Package =TWiki::Search=
+
+This module implements all the search functionality.
+
+
+%TOC%
+
+---++ ClassMethod *new* ($session)
+
+Constructor for the singleton Search engine object.
+
+
+
+---++ ObjectMethod *finish* ()
+Break circular references.
+
+
+
+---++ StaticMethod *getTextPattern* ($text,$pattern)
+
+Sanitise search pattern - currently used for FormattedSearch only
+
+
+
+---++ ObjectMethod *searchWeb* (...)
+
+Search one or more webs according to the parameters.
+
+If =_callback= is set, that means the caller wants results as
+soon as they are ready. =_callback_ should be set to a reference
+to a function which takes =_cbdata= as the first parameter and
+remaining parameters the same as 'print'.
+
+If =_callback= is set, the result is always undef. Otherwise the
+result is a string containing the rendered search results.
+
+If =inline= is set, then the results are *not* decorated with
+the search template head and tail blocks.
+
+The function will throw Error::Simple if it encounters any problems with the
+syntax of the search string.
+
+Note: If =format= is set, =template= will be ignored.
+
+Note: For legacy, if =regex= is defined, it will force type='regex'
+
+If =type="word"= it will be changed to =type="keyword"= with =wordBoundaries=1=. This will be used for searching with scope="text" only, because scope="topic" will do a Perl search on topic names.
+
+SMELL: If =template= is defined =bookview= will not work
+
+SMELL: it seems that if you define =_callback= or =inline= then you are
+ responsible for converting the TML to HTML yourself!
+
+FIXME: =callback= cannot work with format parameter (consider format='| $topic |'
+
+
+
+---++ StaticMethod *displayFormField* ($meta,$args) -> $text
+
+Parse the arguments to a $formfield specification and extract
+the relevant formfield from the given meta data.
+
+ * =args= string containing name of form field
+
+In addition to the name of a field =args= can be appended with a commas
+followed by a string format (\d+)([,\s*]\.\.\.)?). This supports the formatted
+search function $formfield and is used to shorten the returned string or a
+hyphenated string.
