      <h1>Release notes for Recoll 1.16.x</h1>



      <p><em>Note:</em> No release has been made yet in this

      series. This document documents the progress of development, and

      the state of snapshots sometimes found on the download page, in

      a form which will hopefuly be found easier to read than the

      Mercurial changelog on BitBucket.</p>



      <h2>Caveats</h2>





      <p><em>Installing over an older version</em>: 1.16 snapshots are

      fully compatible with 1.15 indexes for now. Perform a full index

      pass if installing over an older version. The simplest way to do

      this is to quit all recoll programs and just delete the index

      directory

      (<span class="literal">rm&nbsp;-rf&nbsp;~/.recoll/xapiandb</span>). 

      <span class="literal">recollindex&nbsp;-z</span>

      will do the same in most cases.</p> 





      <h2>Changes</h2>



      <p>Recoll 1.16 current change list:</p> 



      <ul>



        <li>Searches now allow negative directory filtering (all

        results except from the specified directory). Other attempts

        at still impossible negative searches

        (ie: <span class="literal">-mime:</span> now cause

        explicit errors messages instead of lame results. The

        inverted directory filtering is accessible from the query

        language and by checking a checkbox in the advanced search panel.</li>



        <li>The GUI advanced search panel now allows specifying a

        field for each entry (ie: author/recipient, etc).</li>



      <li>Added filters for .war (Konqueror web archive) and .mhtm (other web

      archive format).</li>



        <li>Fixed bug which caused UTF-8 paths inside ZIP archives to

        be mishandled. Also fix problem with colons inside archive

        member paths.</li>



        <li>Result table:

          <ul>

            <li>The detail area now has a popup menu similar

             to the one in the result list (open parent, save to disk

             etc.).</li>

            <li>Estimated result counts are displayed in the status line.</li>

            <li>Set row height according to default font size, and better 

             adjust row height and vertical text position in

             cells.</li>

          </ul>

      </ul>
