This is absolutely relevant to my interests and I will try it out in a few hours as it is early morning in Europe now.
So far I do not see any licensing terms, the source file headers only state the copyright notice. Do you have any plans about that?

This has happened to me many times. In my case I forget how my program works fron all the approaches I have tried while writing it, then get excited to try a great idea which then does not work because it relies on some feature from one of the alternatives that I rejected for some other reason.
I will indeed waste a few hours trying the PDF indexing idea, there has to be some way to make it work. I have done some feeble attempts in this direction by myself before using the C library pdfio ( https://github.com/michaelrsweet/pdfio) which would work also on Windows. I will probably crash again on that wall but if the code search works as described I will still use this program every day.
