Description

  • Replace the button "Search among my own files" by a "More option" button
  • This button will show more search options below the search line edit

New search options

  • User can define a range of size
  • User can specify a file type (based on the file extension), for example:
    • Audio: [mp3, mp2, mid, wav, ogg, wma, aac, flac, au, aiff]
    • Compressed: [zip, ace, rar, tar.gz, tar.gz2, tar.bz]
    • Document: [html, htm, doc, txt, nfo, odt, etc...]
    • Executable: [exe, msi]
    • Picture: [jpg, jpeg, gif, png, eps, img, pct, psp, pic, tif, rle, bmp, pcx]
    • Video: [mpg, mpeg, mov, m4v, asf, avi, pxp, wmv, ogm, mlv, rm, rmvb, divx]
    • Subtitle: [sub, srt, etc..]
  • User can tick a box to search among its own files

Data result presentation

  • User can sort a search result by clicking the column headers.
  • Do not separate folder and files anymore
  • By default, sorted by the "relevance" column

Comments

A solution to search with extensions is to create a second index containing only extensions and do not index the file extension in the first index. A simple hash map may be enough for the extensions. Thus the terms will never match any extension.

Extension are stored as meta-data with the semantic of "file type".
