Archie search engine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Archie is a search engine designed to index FTP archives, allowing people to find specific files. The original implementation was written by Alan Emtage and Bill Heelan. The name derives from the word "archive", but is probably also a reference to the comic book series of the same name.
