Albert S a46ecf9bff gui: disable searchbar when search is running avoids waiting in the gui thread. does not try to cancel the QFuture that actually cannot be cancelled anyway. sidesteps a strange bug which rethrows already caught exception.		2020-06-06 23:18:33 +02:00

qss

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.
