Description
Search Photos
This program helps you to find your photos.
On all my systems python is already available and most of my systems are using gtk3. First attempt is with python-whoosh And the result of the experiments is this project.
On Archlinux python-whoosh is 4 Mb and this program ".pyz" is only 44 kb. Compare to docfetcher (java) of 50 Mb ! That is actually a very nice program: it can index many different files, fast, reliable and not to big.
By the way: speed is not an issue. Generating an index takes a few minutes. But that's only done once. Updating is much faster. Search words and presenting the result is very quick.
Features

- Provides a preview of the selected photo.
- Default settings can be changed via the preferences.
- Simple installation.
