[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Internet Search home applet

[From: Rainer Dorsch]

Hi Tomas,

that is pretty cool, thanks.

Can the search applet display text, in case there is not meaningful logo 
(yet)?

Can the search applet search a second directory in /usr/local? Would be useful 
since before a reflash, a backup of /usr/local would save these local 
modifications.

Thanks,
Rainer
