recoll (personal full text search tool)
Recoll is a personal full text search tool for Unix/Linux.
It is based on the very strong Xapian backend, for which it
provides an easy to use, feature-rich, easy administration,
QT graphical interface.
The homepage of recoll is found at http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/recoll/
recoll depends on some other packages, that are not met by a
standard Slackware install. All these should be covered by seperate
build scripts. These dependencies are:
Required:
xapian-core (http://www.xapian.org/)
Optional:
antiword (http://www.winfield.demon.nl/)
unrtf (http://www.gnu.org/software/unrtf/unrtf.html)
NOTE: As of the time of writing, recoll depends on version 0.9.10 of
xapian-core, the newer 1.0.0 release does NOT work with this version
of recoll.
Else no incompatibilities are known.
After installing the package you should create the file
$HOME/.recoll/recoll.conf and modify it to your needs, especially the
"topdirs" where recoll looks for files to index. See "man recoll.conf"
for details.
