下載 Google 桌面搜索(EN, 简体) - 多文件的內文搜尋
- image came from http://desktop.google.com/
Limit of Google desktop search (GDS)
- only index the first 10,000 words not full text, see Help Center
ReIndex for GDS
(GDS v4 has the ReIndex function.)
- ReIndex for Google Desktop Search: command-line形式，可以放在排程，變成自動更新索引
- Google Desktop Search Plug-ins: TweakGDS: 手動/自動 更新索引，須先安裝 .NET Framework。
ex1: C:\tweakgds\TweakGDS.exe "C:\Documents and Settings\[UserName]\My Documents" 只針對[我的文件]更新索引
ex2: C:\tweakgds\TweakGDS.exe /complete "C:\Documents and Settings\[UserName]\My Documents" 只針對[我的文件]更新索引，並刪除cache
GDS as service (背景服務)
- 將C:\PROGRA~1\Google\GOOGLE~1\GoogleDesktop.exe /startup 放在排程(在系統啟動時執行)
- 即 C:\Program Files\Google\Google Desktop Search\GoogleDesktop.exe /startup

plugins
If you upgrade from GDS1.x to GDS 2 Beta, I recommend you reinstall GDS and its plugins to avoid the compatiability issues.
file indexing
- Active+ Software MIME Indexer 1.01 (*.EML)
- Larry's Any Text File Indexer 1.0
- Larry's Help File Indexer (*.CHM)
- OmniPage Search Indexer 1.0
- Halftone Search for Google Desktop 1.2.x (*.MHT, *.ZIP, *.RAR...) Note: Most plugins only index the file name of archive file (*.ZIP, *.RAR) not cache the content. (alternative: Airbear Software's IndexZip Plug-in - Indexes the names of files within JAR, RAR, and ZIP compressed archives.)
