  Description     : A personal full text search tool, lightweight and easy-to-use desktop search engine

Recoll is a personal full text search tool for Unix/Linux with the
following features:

- - No database daemon, web server, desktop environment or exotic language
  necessary.
- - QT-based GUI.
- - Supports most common document types.
- - Powerful query facilities, with boolean searches, phrases, proximity,
  wildcards, filter on file types and directory tree.
- - Multi-language and multi-character set with Unicode based internals.

While Beagle may be the most popular desktop search engine for Linux,
there are alternatives. If you are looking for a lightweight and
easy-to-use yet powerful desktop search engine, you might want to try
Recoll. Unlike Beagle, Recoll doesn't require Mono, it's fast, and it's
highly configurable. Recoll is based on Xapian, a mature open source
search engine library that supports advanced features such as phrase and
proximity search, relevance feedback, document categorization, boolean
queries, and wildcard search.
