There are many possibilities for searching.
The choice depends on your requirements. Is this
for you personally? Do you distribute your
output and expect to distribute
the search system with it? What computing platforms
do you have to support? Do you want to just identify
files that have a certain word, or do you want
boolean logic, word endings, etc.? What kind of
interface do you want for the query and for
the search results?
