Hello,
I'm looking for any kind of tool which would take the XML dump (most probably the pages-meta-current.xml.bz2, at least the pages-articles.xml.bz2) and would return the list of page titles (or alternatively/configurably page ids) of pages containing given string.
Does anybody have such (kind of) tool and is willing to share? Both command line or webpage interface are OK.
Thank you.

I have one program to do so, dated 3 years ago. Many of us have probably rewritten that wheel. I'll send you privately. There's also http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Micke/WikiFind Not the ultimate solution, but good enough. I have some changes to unify both versions if you're interested.
