h3. Configuring the server
Indexing defines how data is indexed. Character Substitution replaces e.g. "ö" with "oe". Indexes hold the data. Sources tell Picky where to get the data. Categories categorize parts of the data. Searching defines how to handle a query text. Character Substitution replaces e.g. "ñ" with "n". Searches offer a search interface on one or more indexes. Routing maps URLs to queries.
