The best thing I found when I was playing with tools was Namazu. There
are quite a few other tools that will do the same thing Namazu does, but
it seemed to be pre-configured for things like Word and PDF, while the
other tools needed a lot of configuration/setup. I may be wrong about
that; if someone wants to defend their favorite other tool, please feel
free. :)

BTW, Acroread does a decent job of *searching* PDFs, but it's beastly
slow on Linux and only does PDFs -- not Word docs.
