open files in the Xapian db (could not be deleted under windows). Now only fails if a preview has been opened, and a GUI restart fixes the situation.
Recoll
Recoll is a desktop full-text search tool. It finds keywords inside documents as well as file names.
- Versions are available for Linux and MS Windows.
- A WEB front-end with preview and download features can replace or supplement the GUI for remote use.
- It can search most document formats. You may need external applications for text extraction.
- It can reach any storage place: files, archive members, email attachments, transparently handling decompression.
- One click will open the document inside a native editor or display an even quicker text preview.
- The software is free, open source, and licensed under the GPL.
For more detail, see the features page on the web site or the online documentation.
