Strigi - Features

Features

  • SHA-1 hash for every file indexed to find duplicates
  • As of July, 2007 Strigi supports indexing the contents of plain text, PDF, MP3, archives, Debian and RPM packages, and OASIS OpenDocument text (odt), spreadsheet (ods) and presentation (odp) files
  • D-Bus and socket support for communication between the daemon and search program
  • Small memory footprint
  • Xesam query language support
  • Very portable, currently runs on Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, Mac OS X and Windows
  • Pluggable backend: Lucene and HyperEstraier, SQLite and Xapian backends are being worked on
  • inotify and synchronization to filesystem are being attempted.
  • Strigi's indexing can be stopped manually, and will suspend itself if running on a laptop's batteries, disk drive runs out of space, and/or runs in the background until the CPU is not busy with tasks that the computer-user is waiting on the CPU for.

Famous quotes containing the word features:

    All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    The features of our face are hardly more than gestures which force of habit made permanent. Nature, like the destruction of Pompeii, like the metamorphosis of a nymph into a tree, has arrested us in an accustomed movement.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
