Not really free form text but quite a bit keyword dependent. Closer to what will make good sense on Pharo / every enterprise app also more contextual based on what the app does.

Hi Andy,

You can also just hook into GTSpotter. It already provides the
infrastructure for handling parallel search and lets you focus only on
specifying the search logic.

Brilliant!�� I am very impressed with GTSpotter. In fact, I am impressed with the whole GT suite.�� I think I will build a first prototype with Glamour and GTSpotter.

By the way, what really motivated me to do this experiment is the tools - from the 90's - that were presented in this "Story of Siri" video.�� If you have the time, it is well worth watching.�� Being able to build this sort of capability into an environment like Pharo would be amazing
