Hi,
I found that Kat was indexing only a small fraction of my documents in
10.0 (I'm running 0.6.3-3 retrieved from the "Supplementary KDE 3.4
update" for SuSE 10.0 area of mirrors.kernel.org).
So I eradicated my old settings and re-ran Kat, prompting it to go
through it's initial setup wizard. All is well (the kernel included
with 10.0 has the notification code -- good) but when I get to the
screen the shows the availability of external programs used to access
content of individual document files of various types, I find many are
missing.
Extensive searching within YaST Software Management allowed me to find
only a few, and not ones that are important to me (PowerPoint and
Excel, e.g.). What I need most and cannot find is "pstotext" (from
package "pstotext"). The RTF and TeX extractors would be nice, too.
Even the MS-Word package ("antiword") would be useful, since like it or
not, I have to deal with quite a few Word documents.
I'm wondering if some of the program names have changed? E.g., pstotext.
I have ps2ascii, if that's the same thing. If so, how do I tell Kat to
use the program I have?
Anyway, I've placed a screen capture of the window showing the external
program status here:
<http://64.142.14.4/~rschulz/Kat-Setup-ExtProgs.png>.
If anyone can tell me how to resolve some of these dependencies, I'd
appreciate it.
Or, given what I just learned, perhaps I should just wait (should just
have waited) for my boxed set to arrive.
Thanks.
Randall Schulz
