May be a a bit of a challenge  given their format, but I'm sure
somewhere there is a program to search compressed
text files? Wiring it up with a GCI / script interface will 
be a bit more probematical . IIRC Java 1.1 has built in
support for zip files so a search applet should be easy
and probably already exists?? 

Java dudes?
anyone?
