| PackageDescription | command-line tools for Strigi Desktop Search
This package is part of Strigi Desktop Search, it contains utilities powered
by Strigi:
* deepfind, an enhanced version of find. It lists files embedded in other
files like .deb, .rpm, .tar.gz, email attachments, and other files.
* deepgrep, an enhanced version of grep. It searches in binary files like
OpenOffice files, mp3s, Microsoft office files, pdfs and also in files
embedded in other files like .deb, .rpm, .tar.gz, email attachments, pdf
and other files.
* xmlindexer, a program that outputs the file parsing results as xml.
It walks through a directory and outputs an XML file containing all
the metadata and text it can extract from the files it encounters.
This means that the Strigi's powers of data extraction are now available
to all applications that can parse XML simply by calling xmlindexer and
parsing the output.
