I've just discovered how useful the geanydoc plugin can be and want to adopt it for use with Java. Strangely, I can't find any Java API search engines (that actually work) or anything comparable to pydoc. Can anyone suggest anything?

In the meantime, I'm using Google to do it:

> firefox "http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=site:http://java.sun.com inurl:"javase/6/docs/api" %w&btnI=I'm+Feeling+Lucky"

which, largely, works rather well.

You could also use:

> firefox "http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=site:http://java.sun.com inurl:"javase/6/docs/api" intitle:%w&btnI=I'm+Feeling+Lucky"

to be more specific if necessary (and get rid of I'm feeling lucky for getting results)
