As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Actually, I suspect that an OO framework could potentially be
developed without too much difficulty using only existing language
facilities, if someone thinks it's really worth the effort. That is,
an OO style of programming can be facilitated with the functionality
provided by procedures. Again, IMO that's an effort best left for
the RPG community.
