qss
=========
quite simple search (qss) creates a poor-man full-text search for your files using a
sqlite database.
A simple gui (C++ with Qt5) for search is found in gui/.
It shows preview pages of documents where your search keywords have
been found. This allows you to search all indexed pdfs and take a look
at the pages side by side in an instant.
The name of the project will probably be changed.
Goals
=====
* **Find & Preview**. Instead of merely telling you where your search phrase has been found, it actually shows it too.
* **No daemons**. As other solutions are prone to have annoying daemons running that eat system resources away, this solution should make do without daemons if possible.
* **Easy setup**. Similiarly, there should be no need for heavy-weight databases. Instead, this solutions tries to squeeze out the most from simple approaches. In particular, it relies on sqlite.
* **GUI & CLI**. Provide CLI interfaces and GUI interfaces
