Would be handy if I could easily search the content of my documents such as PDF and DOC files. Preferably the files should be indexed to search faster.
So far I tried Recoll from the Snap store. However, the GUI seems a bit outdated.
Any recommendations?
You can try ripgrep-all.
By default, rga caches the extracted text, if it is small enough, to a database in ~/.cache/rga on Linux, ~/Library/Caches/rga on macOS, or C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\rga on Windows. This way, repeated searches on the same set of files will be much faster.
