Albert S 40207c3399 gui: Remove enableSandbox() for general GUI 
While f67a37bc21 indicated the last remaining code could stay,
it can't because there is a launch failure of SandboxedProcessor.

This has been revealed by the changes of the previous commit,
aa03d0a4920e.

Hence, the GUI will be untouched by exile. We only sandbox
the preview generation and the indexing trough IPC.

looqs - FTS for the Linux desktop with previews for search results

looqs creates a full text search index for your files. It allows you to look at previews where your search terms have been found, as shown in the screenshots below.

Screenshots

The screenshots in this section may occasionally be slightly outdated, but they are usually recent enough to get an overall impression of the current state.

Current status

Last version: 2022-0X-XX, v0.1

Please see Changelog for a human readable list of changes.

Goals and principles

  • Find & Preview. Instead of merely telling you where your search phrase has been found, it should also render the corresponding portion/pages of the documents and highlight the searched words.
  • No daemons. As some other desktop search projects are prone to have annoying daemons running that eat system resources away, this solution should make do without daemons where possible.
  • Easy setup. Similiarly, there should be no need for heavy-weight databases. Instead, this solution tries to squeeze out the most from simple approaches. In particular, it relies on sqlite.
  • GUI & CLI. Provide CLI interfaces and GUI interfaces
  • Sandboxing. As reading and rendering lots of formats naturally opens the door for security bugs, those tasks are offloaded to small, sandboxed sub-processes to mitigate the effect of exploited vulnerabilities.

Supported platforms

Linux (on amd64) is currently the main focus. Currently, I don't plan on supporting anything else and the sandboxing architecture does not make it likely. I suppose a version without sandboxing might be conceivable for other platforms, but I have no plans or resources to actively target anything but Linux at this point.

Licence

GPLv3.
