Comment: indexing PDF files?
| << Previous | Next >> |
Comment inspired from TheAlchemist
TheAlchemist: Why do you always come with so difficult question guy? 
Anyway you are right, and YACS deserves a better indexation scheme for files.
Actually, if you look carefully at line 437 of files/edit.php, you will see a proud comment flagging the place where to add such a thing...
I know that some tools are able to extract searchable text from binary files, but I have not practiced them yet. So, if you want to start something in this field, please proceed...
Thank you very much for your interest in YACS. Glad to know that it has proven quite useful to your university.
