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.
Most distributions feature prebuilt packages for Recoll. In any case, here
are the instructions for building and
installing.
