If what you are trying to do is *index* things, then the python library
-- or any libswish-e related library binding -- is not going to help
you. The Swish-e 2.x library is for search only.

You can write an indexer in any language and pass it to the swish-e -S
prog feature.

If you want to write a search application to retrieve results from the
index, that's when you'd need bindings to the C library using python or
perl or php or whatever.

Just wanted to be clear in case there was some confusion as to what the
library actually gives you.
