The TODO > list claims, that it is an open issue. Well, I haven't done any work on it. Can you try to read the nnir.el sources to see what it does? It is not really difficult: there is a function nnir-run-query which dispatches to nnir-run-, ie nnir-run-glimpse in your case. The backend function massages the query a bit and then runs glimpse (or waissearch, or whatever), then parses the output of that and returns an alist of article number and file name or suchlike. I think it might be sufficient to just chop off the `.gz' from the file name at the appropriate point. I think you will be able to understand the function quite easily: the output of glimpse is massaged in an understandable way into something which looks like Lisp and is then evaled. kai -- A preposition is not a good thing to end a sentence with.
