For use with pgnus, I'd like to change the args to -H and -F to search through another glimpse index of a separate dir structure. >> I'm thinking in particular of 600MB of Catholic reference materials >> (text files) I've collected that I usually need to glimpse-search >> while reading email in Gnus. > Do you know of glimpse.el?

Still it might be nice to show the 'G G' glimpse command for editing in the minibuffer, the way Shutko's glimpse.el does, but that's not necessary for me now.
