Yes, DocView supports many search term formats...
"my phrase" - Will seach for that exact phrase
my phrase - will search for any of those two words.
my +phare - will search for a topic that contains both works (not
necessarly next to each other)
my -phrase - will searchfor a topic that contains 'my', but not 'phrase'
Great !
Thanks for you "help on help".
(I hope that this explanation is right on the fingertips of anybody who
installed DocView in Lazarus.
Trying to check this I tied to compile the DocView project but I git:
/usr/bin/ld: warning:
/home/mschnell/Downloads/svn/fpGUI/docview/src/units/i386-linux/link.res
contains output sections; did you forget -T?
/usr/bin/ld:
/home/mschnell/Downloads/svn/fpGUI/lib/i386-linux/fpg_x11.o: undefined
reference to symbol 'FcFontSetDestroy'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'FcFontSetDestroy' is defined in DSO
/usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1 so try adding it to the linker command line
/usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
docview.lpr(42,1) Error: Error while linking
docview.lpr(42,1) Fatal: There were 1 errors compiling module, stopping
obviously silly me forgot something essential (again)
)
I sincerely hope that finally DocView will get fully integrated in the
Lazarus IDE on the default distribution.
DocView also has a rating system - to indicate how exact / close the
patch was. DocView also searches for variations of words if an exact
phrase was not specified.
Example:
Here is the DocView search result for 'file +handling' using the RTL.INF file.
http://opensoft.homeip.net:8080/~graemeg/docview_search_result.png
Typing the two works 'file handling' (without any quotes) in the
Index tab search field, would also have found the "file handling
routines" help topic.
This does sound great.
