Hey there,

So, the ZIM format does not support natively a cat. system but this is a feature request: http://bugs.openzim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1
well, it is already thought through and documented in parts - all that is needed is implementation. Categorisation is one of the hottest topics for the upcoming dev meeting.
Searches can be title search, article lede search, full text search.
I understand your problem. In fact, we have many search engine solutions but currently nothing which seems to be really what you need (easy to index a ZIM file and available to build an HTTP server). This is a pity because this would really good and the most complicated part of the code is already there.
hmm, I don't understand that answer.
ZIM features a fulltext index and with the zimwriter it can even be created when you just have the ZIM file with article contents.
just do a
zimwriter -Z wikipedia-de.zim wikipedia-de-x.zim
where wikipedia-de.zim is the file containg the articles and wikipedia-de-x.zim is the file where the index will be written to.
Just run that command (it takes some time as the process is quite I/O intensive) and you have a fulltext index which you can use with the zimreader.
What else do you need?
