BTW, I'm the author of aspseek search engine (http://www.aspseek.org/). To me (and to aspseek users, too) aspseek compares to htdig as WWW compares to gopher. I mean it can do a lot more, and faster than ht://Dig. It can do boolean search, phrase search etc. It has a very good relevance of results. It's GPLed.
Ok, a real example. Try searching GNU site using http://www.gnu.org/search.html (htdig) and http://gnu.aspseek.org/ (aspseek). Note that I haven't put cheesy advanced search option on page, so only "basic" search functionality is available. Anyway, just compare the results returned.
