Albert L. commented on TIKA-819:
--------------------------------
I think that by default retrieving the text content should be a recursive and
deep. An optional command-line argument would set Tika to a "cursory" text
content retrieval. Hence, I suggest the following.
-c or --cursory Output cursory content (does not recursively retrieve
content from embedded/attached files)
Thanks!

> It would be nice to be able to disable text content from embedded files.
> For example, if I have a DOCX with an embedded PPTX, then I would like the
> option to disable text from the PPTX from showing up when asking for the text
> content from DOCX. In other words, it would be nice to have the option to
> get text content *only* from the DOCX instead of the DOCX+PPTX.
