Strigi is a desktop and indexer independent
desktop search engine. Its main features include
very fast crawling, a very small memory footprint,
no hammering of the system, and pluggable backends
(currently clucene and hyperestraier was
provided). Communication between the daemon and
search program is done over an abstract interface
which is desktop independent. A small Perl program
with an example of how to query the database is
included along with an example KDE client
application and a KIO interface.
