Mind you, I just hosed my iLiad trying to get the developer package installed, so it'll be a while before I can test Perl scripts on there! If it's a case of taking input and creating simple text-based files from the search results, that's the easy-peasy bit - but how is the search part supposed to work? Grepping the wikipedia file(s), or something more complicated?

In another thread axel77 pointed to this page:
http://users.softlab.ece.ntua.gr/~tt...iaOffline.html
that gets tantalizingly close. It ends up with a perl script that does the searching, so it should only be a matter of taking input and massaging the output for the iliad---at least I think that's all that is needed, I read it rather quickly. Of course we'd need perl running on the iliad, but I thought I saw that someone had done that somewhere a while back.
