Need an alternate Javahelp search engine

Hi Friends, I have been facing this problem with JavaHelp for a few months now. I have created a JavaHelp system for my application and it works absolutely fine. However, I am not happy with the way the search works. As the JavaHelp search engine uses relaxation ranking and morphing, it returns strings other then what is needed. For example: if i give a search for "Workflow Modeling" it returns "modelling" or "workflow" or "a weird string that has workflow and modelling separated by even 20 words". I want my search engine to provide exactly the word i have searched for.
Please provide me a new search engine and the way i can change the default JavaHelp search engine. It is a very urgent requirement. Would be extremely glad if any one of you could provide me a very quick solution.
Thanks.

The search engine is what it is. An alternative is not available. There have been some efforts that have created alternative search interfaces to search engines like Lucerne but I don't know if that implementation is still available or not.

Java Help is now GPLed a as it is nice and small library and the full-text engine is quite separated part there is nothing that would prevent you from writing integration with Lucene or a new search engine of your own. However that is probably not the quick and easy solution you are after.
