skippedNames anything that recoll_noindex does. The latter is used mostly

393 |
for things known to be unindexable by a given Recoll version. Having it

there avoids cluttering the more user-oriented and locally customized

skippedNames.

You can also change the icons which are displayed by recoll in the result

4.4.4. The mimeview file
|
|
|

|
|
|
411 |
mimeview specifies which programs are started when you click on an Edit
|
|
|
412 |
link in a result list. Ie: HTML is normally displayed using firefox, but
|
|
|
413 |
you may prefer Konqueror, your openoffice.org program might be named
|
|
|
414 |
oofice instead of openoffice etc.
|
|
|
415 |
|
|
|
416 |
Changes to this file can be done by direct editing, or through the recoll
|
|
|
417 |
user preferences dialog.
|
|
|
418 |
|
|
|
419 |
As for the other configuration files, the normal usage is to have a
|
|
|
420 |
mimeview inside your own configuration directory, with just the
|
|
|
421 |
non-default entries, which will override those from the central
|
|
|
422 |
configuration file.
|
|
|
423 |
|
|
|
424 |
Please note that these entries must be placed under a [view] section.
