SYNOPSIS

10

DESCRIPTION

12       The recoll command will start the graphical user interface for querying
13       the Recoll database.
14
15       On the first run, recoll will create the user configuration  which  can
16       be customized before starting the first indexation.
17
18       The  -c  option  specifies the configuration directory name, overriding
19       the default or $RECOLL_CONFDIR.
20
21       The -q option can be used to specify an initial query  on  the  command
22       line.  This  query  will  be interpreted by default as a query language
23       string.  If -a is specified, the query string will be interpreted as an
24       all  words  simple  search  query. If -o is specified, the query string
25       will be interpreted as an any word simple search query. If -f is speci‐
26       fied, the query string will be interpreted as a file name simple search
27       query. If -l is specified, the query string will be  interpreted  as  a
28       query language simple search query.
29
30       If  -t  is specified, the Graphical User Interface will not be started,
31       and results will be printed to the standard output. Additional  options
32       understood  by the recollq command may be specified in this case. These
33       can control the output format and the maximum number of results  to  be
34       printed.
