“The Strigi project is the core of the index and search
technology for KDE 4. Strigi is designed to be small and fast, and
it can be installed and used with or without KDE 4, as we’ll
see.“Strigi uses plugins to handle its indices, filetypes, and
metadata extraction. Currently the filesystem index can be stored
in SQLite 3, Xapian, CLucene and Hyper Estraier. The filetype
plugins allow Strigi to get at the text content of non plain text
files, such as PDF or office file formats.
