I'm using the spotlight plugin to try to customize my catalog and I'm having a few problems and I'm wondering if anyone knows how to properly customize these spotlight queries. I've looked a little at spotlight syntax, but I'm still having problems getting what I want. Most of it centers around how to apply multiple queries.
1. For applications, I'm using kind:app . However, it also indexes a lot of .jar file (Java programs). How can I say kind:app but name ! = .jar or kind != .jar in order to exclude files that I don't want listed in the catalog? 2. I'm trying to replicate recent items by creating a catalog for items opened today and yesterday. How do I combine the date:today and date:yesterday into one query AND how do I exclude email messages. It's including emails in the catalog and I don't want them included. 3. Finally, to index documents how do I tell spotlight to include files under a certain directory. For example, everything in home, or everything in documents, etc? Any help is greatly appreciated. I've tried to look through some spotlight documentation, but I'm still stumped on this...
