CHANGES
|
|
|
|
1.7.0 2006-12-20
|
|
- Email attachments are now indexed.
|
|
- Right-click menu option to access the parent document of an embedded
|
|
result (ie from mail attachment to parent message).
|
|
- The sort tool has been improved: no need to restart the query after sort
|
|
criteria change.
|
|
- Support for real-time indexing with inotify is now enabled by default
|
|
when appropriate.
|
|
- Recoll now warns when the configured native viewer can not be found and
|
|
starts an interface for chosing another one.
|
|
- Categories (text, presentation, spreadsheets, etc.) can be used instead
|
|
of raw mime types when filtering on file types in advanced search.
|
|
- The port to qt4 is functional and can be enabled with configure --enable-qt4
|
|
- 'autophrase' option improved and may now actually be useful.
|
|
- Improved highlighting (again...)
|
|
- Display term frequencies in term explorer.
|
|
- Recollindex -e to remove data from index for listed files.
|
|
|
|
1.6.3
|
|
- Fixed problem with bad detection of mbox message boundaries.
|
|
Upgrading can change the message numbering in some cases, and you should
|
|
perform a full index update (recollindex -z) after installing
|
|
the new version.
|
|
- Fixed problem with execution of external viewer for files with
|
|
single-quotes in the name.
|
|
|
|
1.6.2
|
|
- Minor solaris compilation glitches only.
|
|
1.6.1
|
|
- Term explorer: a multimode wildcard-regexp-spell/phonetic tool to search
|
|
the index for terms. This uses aspell for the orthographic/phonetic part.
|
|
- A more dynamic advanced search window. You now have a choice of the top
|
|
level conjunction (OR/AND) and of any number of clauses, including NEAR
|
|
and PHRASE clauses with an adjustable proximity parameter.
|
|
- User-settable format for the result-list entries, which use an HTML
|
|
string with %xx printf-like replacements (accessible from the user
|
|
preferences).
|
|
- Real time monitoring/indexing support. This is not configured by
|
|
default, and must be specified at build time (configure --help).
|
|
- Improved phrase/group highlighting in abstracts and preview
|
|
- Better sample selection for synthetic abstracts.
|
|
- Improved performance of the text splitter, good for indexing and previewing.
|
|
- Shift+click link to open new preview window instead of tab in existing
|
|
window.
|
|
- The key sequence for term completion in the simple search entry was
|
|
changed from CTRL+TAB to "Escape Space" to avoid interaction with window
|
|
managers.
|
|
- Improved recall for phrases with composite words like email addresses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updating from 1.2 to 1.3 or 1.4 or 1.5:
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
From version 1.3 up, there is a new feature to search specifically for file
|
|
names (with wildcard processing). If you want to take full advantage of
|
|
this, you should perform a full reindex after installing the new version
|
|
(ie: use recollindex -z, or delete ~/.recoll/xapiandb).
|
|
Also, we now use the central copies of configuration files for default
|
|
values, and the user ones only for overrides. Your old configuration files
|
|
will still work, but, you may want to remove them if they are unmodified,
|
|
or keep only the modified parameters.
|
|
|
|
1.5.9
|
|
- Fix bad timezone conversion in email dates. Display timezone in result
|
|
list dates.
|
|
|
|
1.5.8
|
|
- Fix stored and displayed dates which used to come from the file's ctime,
|
|
now use mtime (which was already used for deciding re-indexing).
|
|
- Fix problem with some weird MIME messages (with null boundaries) which
|
|
crashed the indexer.
|
|
|
|
1.5.[23456]
|
|
- Small fixes dealing with the build process or compiler issues.
|
|
1.5.6 has updated ukrainian and russian messages.
|
|
Otherwise no functional changes, and no need to upgrade from 1.5.1
|
|
|
|
1.5.1
|
|
- Fix serious bug with non ascii strings in simple search history
|
|
- Improve synthetic abstracts: remove size limitations, handle overlapping
|
|
extracts, avoid printing several terms from the same position.
|
|
|
|
1.5.0 2006-09-20
|
|
|
|
- Added support for powerpoint and excel files, with the catdoc package.
|
|
- Allow viewing consecutive documents from the result list inside a single
|
|
preview window using the shift-arrow-up and shift-arrow-down keys.
|
|
- Colorize search terms in abstracts in the result list.
|
|
- A number of elements are now remembered between program invocations:
|
|
sort criteria, list of ignored file types (always starts inactive),
|
|
subtree restriction, better handling of the recent searches listbox, the
|
|
buildAbstract and replaceAbstract settings are not forgotten any more.
|
|
- New option to automatically add a phrase to simple searches.
|
|
- Possibility to adjust the length and context width for synthetic abstracts.
|
|
- Handle weird html better.
|
|
- When indexing mail messages, walk the full mime tree instead of staying
|
|
at the top level, index all text parts and attachement file names.
|
|
- Add -c <confdir> option to recoll and recollindex to specify the
|
|
configuration directory on the command line
|
|
- Better synchronization between the active preview and the highlighted
|
|
paragraph inside the list
|
|
- Improved recall for some special cases of stemming.
|
|
- Much better handling of email dates, allowing better email sorting by
|
|
date (previously the message date was quite often the date when the file
|
|
was indexed).
|
|
- Store the external database lists in the configuration directory, not the
|
|
qt preferences.
|
|
- Ensure dialogs are sized according to font size
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.4.3 2006-05-07
|
|
- Multiple search databases.
|
|
- Optionally auto-search when a word is entered in the simple search
|
|
field.
|
|
- Show possible term completions in simple search by typing CTRL+TAB
|
|
- Add 'more like this' option to result list right-click menu, to look for
|
|
documents related to the current result.
|
|
- Double-click in preview or result list adds the selected word to the
|
|
simple search text field.
|
|
- The simple search text entry field is now a combobox and remembers
|
|
previous searches.
|
|
- Additional OR field in complex search.
|
|
- Improved indexing cancellability (interrupting recollindex or closing
|
|
recoll with an indexing thread active), and status reporting.
|
|
- Fixed filters to handle file paths with embedded spaces.
|
|
- Misc small bug and memory leaks fixes.
|
|
- More compact result list.
|
|
- Set mode 0700 on .recoll directory by default
|
|
|
|
1.3.3 2006-04-04
|
|
- Implement specific search on file names with wildcard
|
|
support. Indexation can optionally process all file names or only those
|
|
with mime types supported for normal indexation. UPDATING: you need a
|
|
full re-indexation to take advantage of this.
|
|
- Use links and a right-click popup menu to replace confusing use of
|
|
mouse clicks and double-clicks inside the result list.
|
|
- The 'example' configuration files are now used as default, and are not
|
|
copied any more to the user directory during installation. Overrides can
|
|
be set in the personal files for any value that the user wishes to
|
|
modify, with unchanged formats and file names (so that the files from
|
|
previous versions remain valid, but you may wish to trim them of values
|
|
that duplicate the central ones).
|
|
- Use NLS information (LC_CTYPE, LANG) do determine default charset when
|
|
possible.
|
|
- Mp3 file indexing, either filenames only or also id3 tags if id3info is
|
|
available. c/c++ ext edit. Use gnuclient instead of xemacs for text files.
|
|
- Russian and Ukrainian translations and many improvement ideas thanks to
|
|
Michael Shigorin.
|
|
|
|
1.2.3 2006-03-03
|
|
- Added support for dvi (with dvips), and dvu (with DjVuLibre).
|
|
- Ensure that configure and make use the same qt version.
|
|
- Fix sorted sequence title display.
|
|
- Discriminate fatal errors and missing docs while loading a doc list.
|
|
- Improved and cleaned up way to position a preview on the first search term.
|
|
1.2.2 2006-02-02
|
|
- Fix minor compilation glitches (FreeBSD 4, QT 3.1, xapian-config problem)
|
|
1.2.0 2006-02-01
|
|
- Improved preview loading: don't highlight very big documents (over 1Mb),
|
|
allow cancellation while loading.
|
|
- Abstracts generated in the result list by looking at search term
|
|
contexts. This can slow down result list display for big documents, and
|
|
can be turned off in the preferences menu.
|
|
- Wrap query detail line displayed when clicking on result list header.
|
|
- Text splitting cleanup with less spurious terms should result in
|
|
slightly smaller databases.
|
|
- Sligthly improved presentation in preview, esp. line breaks.
|
|
- Color icons...
|
|
- Let the user select the html browser used for help display.

|
|
directory.
|
|
- autoconf/Makefile: improved search and diagnostics for qt/qmake.
|
|
- Internal code cleanup for maintainability: text splitting, user
|
|
interface.
|
|
- Added prototype kio_slave to show result inside Konqueror, doesn't seem
|
|
particularly useful.
|
|
1.1.0 2006-01-12
|
|
- A much better user manual, which can be browsed from the help menu.
|
|
- man pages for recoll, recollindex, recoll.conf
|
|
- User/query interface configuration dialog.
|
|
- Click on result list header will display the exact boolean search which
|
|
was used.
|
|
- recollindex can be used to create stem expansion databases independantly
|
|
of a full indexing pass.
|
|
- Misc user interface improvements, like an 'all terms' checkbox for
|
|
simple search.

|
- Fixed case-insensitivity issues. Probably needs more testing.
