My experience with strigi is .........well............. mixed to say the
best.
Sometimes it actually finds something and others it just sort of sits
there looking stupid. I did something yesterday that was "lost" so I
decided to try strigi after your post. It sort of found what I wanted,
in a left hand sort of way. It produced some "HTML" files that led me to
what I wanted to know.
I see that it runs in Konqueror as a "web" page. Maybe this is the way
its supposed to work.
