+
+
+ Specific File Name searches and Query Language searches

+
+ The last entry in a configuration file was ignored if it

+ file line.
+
+ Non-ascii characters in path names did not work well from
+ the configuration GUI (editing the configuration files did
+ work).
+
+ Accented characters in mail headers encoded according to a
+ lax interpretation of rfc2047 were sometimes not decoded.
+
+ Recoll dumps core when exiting if the configuration was not
+ found.
+
+ The Qt4 version sometimes did not display the
+ status bar in the main window.
+
+ Message boundaries were not detected inside mbox format
+ files with quoted strings inside the 'From ' lines.

Recoll journal of user-visible changes
-
+
+
+
+ - Recoll has a new class of persistent external filters
+ with the capability to process several documents, or
+ multi-document files, in the same instance. Benefits: much
+ faster image tag indexing, and new file formats. Except for
+ the Perl image tag filter (because of ExifTool), the new
+ filters are written in Python.
-
+
+
- New file formats: chm (microsoft help), zip archives, .ics
+ calendar files. Individual pages in chm files are indexed and
+ can be previewed. Zip is quite convenient for maildir
+ archives (for example).
+
+ - Recoll can now use the output of the Beagle Firefox plugin
+ to index visited web pages and bookmarks. This is only usable
+ if Beagle itself is not running, else Recoll and Beagle will be
+ fighting for the same queue.
+
+ - Big text files (like application logs) can now be paged for
+ indexing, avoiding excess memory usage during indexing and
+ improving the usability at query time. They can also be
+ altogether skipped by setting a maximum size configuration
+ parameter. These parameters have default values (1 MB and 20
+ MB) which change Recoll behaviour compared to previous
+ versions. You can set textfilepagekbs
+ and textfilemaxmbs to -1 in the configuration to
+ restore the old behaviour.
+
+ - A cache was implemented for mbox message header offsets. This
+ speeds up message previews for big mbox files.
+
+ - Miscellaneous usability improvements:
+
+ - Allow using page-up/down and shift-home to scroll the
+ result list while the focus is in the search entry.
+ - Make 'Use desktop preferences' the default for new
+ Recoll installations, and make this choice more
+ prominent in the external viewer dialog.
+ - ^P starts the print dialog on a preview window.
+ - If a search has no result, alternate spellings are
+ suggested. This feature is still a bit raw and will be
+ improved.
+ - If the text of a document is empty, preview will switch to
+ displaying the document fields.
+ - New entry in the result list contextual menu for opening
+ the parent document of a result list hit with its native
+ application. Useful for exemple for pages inside chm files.
+
+
+
+ - Indentation is now preserved when displaying text documents
+ inside the preview window. This is particularly welcome for
+ program source files.
+
+ - Allow substituting arbitrary fields in the result
+ paragraph, using a %(fieldname) syntax
+
+ - The real-time indexing monitor will now accumulate
+ modifications during 30 S before indexing.
+
+ - The indexer can now split camelCase words, allowing search on
+ component terms. This is not enabled by default as it can
+ confuse phrase searches (ie: "MySQL manual" is matched by
+ phrase queries for "my sql manual" and "MySQL manual"
+ but not "mysql manual"). Use "configure --enable-camelcase"
+ to activate it.
+
+
+ - The ipath is now printed by default after the url in the
+ default result list format.
+
+ - recoll_noindex and skippedNames can now be
+ changed at any point in the tree (only for topdirs previously).
+
+ - Allow using location/application sensitivity in external viewer
+ choice. This uses several new functions:
+
+ - Allow the substitution of arbitrary document fields inside
+ external viewer command line arguments.
+ - Allow field values to be set on all documents
+ in a file system subtree. For example, you can
+ set an application tag (ie: rclaptg = gnus) on all mailbox
+ files under a specific directory.
+ - New syntax in mimeview for including the rclaptg field in
+ viewer choice
+ (mimetype|tagvalue = ...).
+
+
+
+ - Allow specifiying a specific default character set for mail
+ messages. This is mainly useful for readpst dumps. All
+ reasonable non-ascii messages specify their character set.
+
+ - Added a --without-gui configure option. Removes all X11 and
+ Qt dependancies and only compiles the command-line interface.
+
+ - Improved the kio_recoll build. There is no need to run
+ configure manually in the main directory any more. Ubuntu
+ packages for kio_recoll are now built on the
+
+ recoll-backports PPA on launchpad.net.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Bugs fixed:
+
+ - Qt4 version only: the search inside the preview window
+ could become unbearably slow for big documents (quadratically
+ so), and could not be interrupted (Qt bug). The Qt3 version of
+ the code was included in the preview tool to restore good
+ performance. This bug is the main reason for this release.
+
+ Build system improvements:
+
+ - Perform minimal base package configuration inside the kio
+ cmake code to permit building it from scratch (without a build
+ of the main code). Mainly useful for builds on the Ubuntu
+ PPA.
+ - Implement a --without-gui option to build a pure
+ command-line version with no Qt or X11 dependancies.
+ - Ensure that the user's PATH settings determine where we
+ look first for qmake in all cases.
+
+
+
This is a bug fix release.
+ - Fix the sort tool which had been broken since 1.11 with
+ some (or all?) qt3 versions.
-
- Catch two Xapian exceptions which could crash the GUI when a query
was run while the index was being updated.
- Ensure that the result list right-click pop up menu will appear even
