Version:           KDE 3.0.5 (CVS HEAD >= 20020427)
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.18-4GB
OS/Compiler notes: 

Hi!
the advanced function of kfind provides for searching of text in documents. This does not work for the zipped office files.

Please either fix or give a hint that koffice files are not suitable for searching.

Subject: kfind does not retrieve text from kword (all koffice ?) files - critical missing functionality 

Hi!
see http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44500

I attach a shellscript (dirty hack) which searches in kwd files, but I do not 
know
a) if this covers everything
b) how to implement it in kfind
c) if it is realy necessary to use the UNZIPDIR
d) the "^" is not a good solution, but I do not know better

thanks to Jan Holesovsky <kendy@artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz> 
BTW the script works only for the new kword (koffice) files format (ZIP)
