The whole of your data at your fingertips |
Features
Kerry is a front-end for Beagle, the search tool that indexes all your data, making the data inside documents as easy to find as file names.
- You decide which directories you want indexed
- Indexing can be done in the background
- After initial indexing, it is almost unnoticeable
- Indexing can be paused while cpu-intensive tasks need the resources
- Searching is case-insensitive
- OR can be used for option searches
- Phrases can be used, within quotes, e.g. "There be dragons"
- Words or phrases can be excluded by using a minus, e.g. -cats
- You can search by extension, using, for instance, ext:jpg
