NAME¶
recoll - user interface for the Recoll full text search system
SYNOPSIS¶
recoll [
-c <configdir> ] [
-o |
-l |
-f |
-a ] [
-t ] [
-q <query> ]
DESCRIPTION¶
The
recoll command will start the graphical user interface for querying
the
Recoll database.
On the first run,
recoll will create the user configuration which can be
customized before starting the first indexation.
The
-c option specifies the configuration directory name, overriding the
default or $RECOLL_CONFDIR.
The
-q option can be used to specify an initial query on the command
line. This query will be interpreted by default as a query language string. If
-a is specified, the query string will be interpreted as an
all
words simple search query. If
-o is specified, the query string
will be interpreted as an
any word simple search query. If
-f is
specified, the query string will be interpreted as a
file name simple
search query. If
-l is specified, the query string will be interpreted
as a
query language simple search query.
If
-t is specified, the Graphical User Interface will not be started, and
results will be printed to the standard output. Additional options understood
by the
recollq command may be specified in this case. These can control
the output format and the maximum number of results to be printed.
