Version: 3.3.1 (using KDE KDE 3.3.1) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc version 3.3.4 20040623 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.4-r1, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6) -mcpu=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe OS: Linux Due to all the help indexing issues (they are still current - check both kde and gentoo forums) the help facility should include its own help indexing facility. How about something similar to microsoft's help facility that lets you browse the help (just like you can already do on KDE), but when you click on search you get asked if you would like to build a search index. Changing the search index once it has already been created could be done from the settings menu. Please, please, please implement this feature with a progress bar or something so that we know it is actually doing something (since it could take some time). This would be a really useful feature that many people would appreciate.

Git commit 583ed246c75ce2c686957b6e1dc34aaed31206b4 by Pino Toscano. Committed on 12/03/2016 at 23:01. Pushed by pino into branch 'master'. Add Xapian support for indexing and searching Start using Xapian for indexing and searching the documentation: it works much better than htp://dig, it provides a C++ API, and it is well maintained. Introduce two helper tools to create/update an index, and search on it, starting from the cache.bz2 files generated by meinproc: this way it is possible to index the whole text, with the entities already expanded (something which would not be there when parsing the docbook files directly). Make use of libxml2 to parse the HTML documents, and get all the text in them. Xapian and libxml2 are currently considered as mandatory dependencies: they are portable, generally available everywhere, and not requiring themselves too many extra dependencies.

Re-enable the full-index search Now that - Xapian is in place for indexing and searching - ht://dig is removed - indexes are updated automatically each startup we can enable the full-index search again.
