Hello 9fans,
full text search engine Kirara-2.1 is released.
the changes:
(a) Wild card "*" in QE(query expression) is extended to more general form.
(b) Wild card "?" in QE(query expression) is supported.
Look MAN_KFIND for the syntax.
(c) Now indexed words are strings of alphabet, numerics and underscore;
and the words that begin with numeric are not excluded any more.
Eulopean languages such as German, Spanish, Greek, Cyrillicetc are
supported.
Japanese runes are also indexed. Look MAN_KFIND for details.
The new index size will infrate (few ten percent) from previous version.
Data format is kept untouched.
(d) Kinder installation instruction for fossil.
(e) Kinder installation process.
Now we use environment variables $kirara1 and $kirara2,
and need not change codes in some rc scripts (kfind1,kfind2,G1,G2,setup)
(f) Flexible database organization.
(g) Many bug fixes in codes and documents
