Phrases. A phrase can be looked for by enclosing it in double quotes.

Finding related documents. Selecting the Find similar documents entry in
|
|
|
1066 |
the result list paragraph right-click menu will select a set of
|
|
|
1067 |
"interesting" terms from the current result, and insert them into the
|
|
|
1068 |
simple search entry field. You can then possibly edit the list and start a
|

|
1069 |
search to find documents which may be apparented to the current result.

File names. File names are added as terms during indexing, and you can

|
1072 |
specify them as ordinary terms in normal search fields (Recoll used to
|
|
|
1073 |
index all directories in the file path as terms. This has been abandoned
|
|
|
1074 |
as it did not seem really useful). Alternatively, you can use the specific
|
|
|
1075 |
file name search which will only look for file names, and may be faster
|
|
|
1076 |
than the generic search especially when using wildcards.

Phrases and Proximity searches. A phrase can be looked for by enclosing it

Example: "user manual" will look only for occurrences of user immediately
|
1083 |
in double quotes. Example: "user manual" will look only for occurrences of
|
| 1056 |
followed by manual. You can use the This exact phrase field of the
|
1084 |
user immediately followed by manual. You can use the This exact phrase
|
| 1057 |
advanced search dialog to the same effect. Phrases can be entered along
|
1085 |
field of the advanced search dialog to the same effect. Phrases can be
|
| 1058 |
simple terms in all simple or advanced search entry fields (except This

1086 |
