The main goal of this project is to create a localized version of a search engine and explore web crawling through recursion.

SCOPE: The project will only use a local folder (with subdirectories) as the location for all the search queries/web crawling. All the files used as input are HTML files. The search functionality will be case-sensitive. When performing a search, the program will not consider substrings of a word to be a valid match.

OUTPUT INFO: The output file will display data in a similar way to google. Each matched search result will have the page's title, URL, and a brief snippet of text that includes the query term.

SUPPORTED COMMANDS: localsearch.exe html_files/index.html output.txt query1 query2 query3 Here, "localsearch.exe" is the name of the program. "html_files/index.html" is the mock seed URL for the project. "output.txt" is the desired file to output the search data.

This program supports up to 3 different search queries at a time, where each query command ("query1", "query2", and "query3") will search through the local directory individually and be outputted to the given file.

TO DO: Finish outputting the data to the file properly. Calculate backlinks score to rank pages appropriately. Add support for phrase searching.
