On http://swish-e.org/current/docs/SWISH-SEARCH.html, there
is some discussion of the syntax accepted by "swish-e -w".
I'm not sure how much of this is applicable to strings that
a user might type into the fill-in area on search.cgi.  I
also think that a briefer introduction might be better for
my users.
