It seems the Oddmuse extension you want is:
http://www.oddmuse.org/cgi-bin/oddmuse/Search_List_Extension seems like it
works at least in a similar way...

BTW, you know you can use CSS to personalize the look of the Oddmuse sites,
right? Also, users can use their own CSS sheets by specifying the url for
the CSS file like this:

http://www.ludism.org/ppwiki?action=browse;id=Games;css=http://www.emacswiki.org/css/hug.css

Beware, once you click on that link, the CSS url is stored on a cookie and
all the pages will use it. If you want to return to normal just leave the
css parameter empty:

http://www.ludism.org/ppwiki?action=browse;id=Games;css=

I may use this feature to experiment a bit...

You're welcomed :)  And feel free to ask anything if you need to, my
knowledge of perl is limited, but I've managed to hack together some Oddmuse
extensions for my sites...
