Description sonnenhohl 2013-02-28 12:12:16 UTC 
Hello,

I need to enhance javahelp into our application to support searches by partial keywords, example:

"The cat is beautiful"

Search query "beautiful" : 1 results
Search query "beaut" : 0 results

I need that when the user type "beaut" the javahelp returns 1 results. Its that hard to implement, from where i can begin? Suggestions? Alternatives?

I would start by looking at JavaHelp/NetBeans integration sources:

When you attach a patch, please reopen.
