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. This requires xapian-core, with optional dependencies of antiword, unrtf, and exiftool (all available at SlackBuilds.org). 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. 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.
