Using Recoll to index tar.gz files
 

Hello,

I'm trying to get Recoll to index either tar or tar.gz files without
success. Per the instructions on Recoll's website I added the
filter rcltar to the filters folder and modified my mimeconf file to
include the following line:


application/x-tar = execm rcltar


Nothing works. It doesn't find text that is included in any tar or
tar.gz file. It will work correctly on other compressed file formats
such as zip and rar. Just not tar or tar.gz.


Is there anyone else here that uses Recoll on tar or tar.gz files? If
so, what's your secret?


Thanks,

Randy
