Please don't try 0.6.<ANYTHING> :) Slow, less data indexed, etc. > >> - Tracker works fine and great with PDF documents. Full points! > >> That's what I am looking for.

To do that, see the examples/libtracker-extract/ code form the code base (or the existing extractors. They should be fairly painless to set up. Then you just need to install the .so to the right directory (man tracker-extract for the details). Also, if you want to reindex ALL you files using your new extractor, you can do that too using: tracker-control --reindex-mime-type=MIME You can provide multiple switches of --reindex-mime-type too ;) -- Regards, Martyn _______________________________________________ tracker-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list
