Sphinx is a collection of programs that aim to provide high  
quality fulltext search. \fBsearchd\fR answers search 
requests coming in on a socket.

This manual page was written for the \fBDebian\fP distribution 
because the original program does not have a manual page. 
Instead, it has documentation in HTML format, see below.
