Because I don't think Neal has the time and interest to program a new search engine just for this purpose you outline.

Firstly, you have not answered my question why it is not realistic,which is now mentioned the earlier in your message.Why should I have a purpose for my own sake overcome,? No it's not my style, and then if you already have a preconceived view on how the programs or search engines,you should make sure you have a better understanding of what opportunities there may be was with the idea for the members in this forum,and it is ridiculous to hear that it is for my "purpose you outline".How it goes with this, let Neal determine the possible continuation.

To program a complete new search engine for a specified taks of finding all by itself some mods for some minor niche games, is no easy task, nor does it appear to me that the result justifies the investment in time and effort (if it even can be done, what I doubt, because there is no convention how mods for the games you want should be marked and named by the authors). Note that thgere are mod collections and lists on such mods on the web for various game ganres - but none of them does maintain itself automatically, like you want it. they have been collected by somebody, by searchinbg, asking, and having received links by helping minds, and then such lists get updated - or not.

So yes, your expectation is unrealistic, most probably, and yes, I have answered both your original and your follow up question. And I think I now do not want any longer, since you turn a bit too aggressive for my taste. A solution how you can acchieve the result you want with just a minimum of regular maintencance, I have hinted at. And it is a proven and economic solution, which I know for sure becasue I maintained those quoted resources myself - for four years until last Decembre.
