I don't use swish.cgi myself, so apologies if I'm off base.  But if=20
swish.cgi uses HTTP GET requests, the search terms have probably in your =

web transaction log all along.  Log analysis software, a simple Perl=20
script, or grep could all fish them out for you without editing the CGI=20
script.  I'm guessing you're looking for lines that match something like =

"GET /somewhere/swish.cgi?query=3Dmy+search+terms....".

This is a good suggestion however doesn't fully solve the problem =
because it doesn't record whether the search was successful or not. =
Which is why I thought I had to try to accomplish this in the cgi =
script.
