The implementation of the etools engine is poor. No date-range support, no language support and it is broken by a CAPTCHA. etools is a metasearch engine, the major search engines it supports (google, bing, wikipedia, Yahoo) are already available in SeaarXNG. While etools does support several engines we currently don't support directly, support for them should be added directly to SearXNG if there is demand. In practice: in SearXNG the worse etools results will be mixed with good results from other engines we have (as long as there is no captcha). At best case, what we win with etools is in e.g. results from de.ask.com in a query from a german request .. in all other cases worse results are bubble up in SearXNG's result list.
