Free file searcher software for linux

File::Searcher::Similars is similar files locator.

SYNOPSIS

use File::Searcher::Similars;

File::Searcher::Similars->init(0, @ARGV);
similarity_check_name();

Similar-sized and similar-named files are picked as suspicious candidates of duplicated files.

What descirbes it better than a actual output. Sample suspicious duplicated files:

## =========
1574 PopupTest.java /home/tong/.../examples/chap10
1561 CardLayoutTest.java /home/tong/.../examples/chap1
1570 PopupButtonFrame.class /home/tong/.../examples/chap6

## =========
22984 BinderyHelloWorld.jpg /home/tong/...
17509 MacHelloWorld.gif /home/tong/...

The first column is the size of the file, 2nd the name, and 3rd the path. The motto for the listing is that, I would rather my program overkills (wrongly picking out suspicious ones) than neglects something that would cause me otherwise years to notice.
By default, File::Searcher::Similars(3) assumes that similar files within the same folder are OK. Hence you will not get duplicate warnings for generated files (like .o, .class or .aux, and .dvi files) or other file series.

Once you are sure that there are no duplications between folders and want File::Searcher::Similars(3) to scoop further, specify the first parameter as 1. This is very good to eliminate similar mp3 files within the same folder, or downloaded files from big sites where different packaging methods are used, e.g.:

## =========
66138 jdc-src.tar.gz .../ftp.ora.com/published/oreilly/java/javadc
147904 jdc-src.zip .../ftp.ora.com/published/oreilly/java/javadc

File Lister provides a Web interface for listing files and directories.

FileLister is meant to be an open source alternative for listing files/directories with an easy navigateable (web-)interface.

KinoSearch is a search engine library.
SYNOPSIS
First, write an application to build an inverted index, or "invindex", from your document collection.
use KinoSearch::InvIndexer;
use KinoSearch::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer;
my $analyzer
= KinoSearch::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer->new( language => en );
my $invindexer = KinoSearch::InvIndexer->new(
invindex => /path/to/invindex,
create => 1,
analyzer => $analyzer,
);
$invindexer->spec_field(
name => title,
boost => 3,
);
$invindexer->spec_field( name => bodytext );
while ( my ( $title, $bodytext ) = each %source_documents ) {
my $doc = $invindexer->new_doc;
$doc->set_value( title => $title );
$doc->set_value( bodytext => $bodytext );
$invindexer->add_doc($doc);
}
$invindexer->finish;
Then, write a second application to search the invindex:
use KinoSearch::Searcher;
use KinoSearch::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer;
my $analyzer
= KinoSearch::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer->new( language => en );
my $searcher = KinoSearch::Searcher->new(
invindex => /path/to/invindex,
analyzer => $analyzer,
);
my $hits = $searcher->search( query => "foo bar" );
while ( my $hit = $hits->fetch_hit_hashref ) {
print "$hit->{title}n";
}
Main features:
- Extremely fast and scalable - can handle millions of documents
- Incremental indexing (addition/deletion of documents to/from an existing index).
- Full support for 12 Indo-European languages.
- Support for boolean operators AND, OR, and AND NOT; parenthetical groupings, and prepended +plus and -minus
- Algorithmic selection of relevant excerpts and highlighting of search terms within excerpts
- Highly customizable query and indexing APIs
- Phrase matching
- Stemming
- Stoplists

File::Basename is a Perl module to parse file paths into directory, filename and suffix.

SYNOPSIS

use File::Basename;

($name,$path,$suffix) = fileparse($fullname,@suffixlist);
$name = fileparse($fullname,@suffixlist);

$basename = basename($fullname,@suffixlist);
$dirname = dirname($fullname);

These routines allow you to parse file paths into their directory, filename and suffix.

NOTE: dirname() and basename() emulate the behaviours, and quirks, of the shell and C functions of the same name. See each functions documentation for details. If your concern is just parsing paths it is safer to use File::Specs splitpath() and splitdir() methods.

It is guaranteed that

# Where $path_separator is / for Unix, for Windows, etc...
dirname($path) . $path_separator . basename($path);

is equivalent to the original path for all systems but VMS.

fileparse
my($filename, $directories, $suffix) = fileparse($path);
my($filename, $directories, $suffix) = fileparse($path, @suffixes);
my $filename = fileparse($path, @suffixes);

The fileparse() routine divides a file path into its $directories, $filename and (optionally) the filename $suffix.

$directories contains everything up to and including the last directory separator in the $path including the volume (if applicable). The remainder of the $path is the $filename.

# On Unix returns ("baz", "/foo/bar/", "")
fileparse("/foo/bar/baz");

# On Windows returns ("baz", "C:foobar", "")
fileparse("C:foobarbaz");

# On Unix returns ("", "/foo/bar/baz/", "")
fileparse("/foo/bar/baz/");

If @suffixes are given each element is a pattern (either a string or a qr//) matched against the end of the $filename. The matching portion is removed and becomes the $suffix.

# On Unix returns ("baz", "/foo/bar", ".txt")
fileparse("/foo/bar/baz", qr/.[^.]*/);

If type is non-Unix (see fileparse_set_fstype()) then the pattern matching for suffix removal is performed case-insensitively, since those systems are not case-sensitive when opening existing files.

You are guaranteed that $directories . $filename . $suffix will denote the same location as the original $path.

basename
my $filename = basename($path);
my $filename = basename($path, @suffixes);

This function is provided for compatibility with the Unix shell command basename(1). It does NOT always return the file name portion of a path as you might expect. To be safe, if you want the file name portion of a path use fileparse().

basename() returns the last level of a filepath even if the last level is clearly directory. In effect, it is acting like pop() for paths. This differs from fileparse()s behaviour.

# Both return "bar"
basename("/foo/bar");
basename("/foo/bar/");

@suffixes work as in fileparse() except all regex metacharacters are quoted.

# These two function calls are equivalent.
my $filename = basename("/foo/bar/baz.txt", ".txt");
my $filename = fileparse("/foo/bar/baz.txt", qr/Q.txtE/);

Also note that in order to be compatible with the shell command, basename() does not strip off a suffix if it is identical to the remaining characters in the filename.

dirname

This function is provided for compatibility with the Unix shell command dirname(1) and has inherited some of its quirks. In spite of its name it does NOT always return the directory name as you might expect. To be safe, if you want the directory name of a path use fileparse().

Only on VMS (where there is no ambiguity between the file and directory portions of a path) and AmigaOS (possibly due to an implementation quirk in this module) does dirname() work like fileparse($path), returning just the $directories.

# On VMS and AmigaOS
my $directories = dirname($path);

When using Unix or MSDOS syntax this emulates the dirname(1) shell function which is subtly different from how fileparse() works. It returns all but the last level of a file path even if the last level is clearly a directory. In effect, it is not returning the directory portion but simply the path one level up acting like chop() for file paths.

Also unlike fileparse(), dirname() does not include a trailing slash on its returned path.

# returns /foo/bar. fileparse() would return /foo/bar/
dirname("/foo/bar/baz");

# also returns /foo/bar despite the fact that baz is clearly a
# directory. fileparse() would return /foo/bar/baz/
dirname("/foo/bar/baz/");

# returns .. fileparse() would return foo/
dirname("foo/");

Under VMS, if there is no directory information in the $path, then the current default device and directory is used.

fileparse_set_fstype
my $type = fileparse_set_fstype();
my $previous_type = fileparse_set_fstype($type);

Normally File::Basename will assume a file path type native to your current operating system (ie. /foo/bar style on Unix, foobar on Windows, etc...). With this function you can override that assumption.

Valid $types are "MacOS", "VMS", "AmigaOS", "OS2", "RISCOS", "MSWin32", "DOS" (also "MSDOS" for backwards bug compatibility), "Epoc" and "Unix" (all case-insensitive). If an unrecognized $type is given "Unix" will be assumed.
If youve selected VMS syntax, and the file specification you pass to one of these routines contains a "/", they assume you are using Unix emulation and apply the Unix syntax rules instead, for that function call only.

File::Where is a Perl module to find the absolute file for a program module; absolute dir for a repository.

From time to time, an program needs to know the abolute file for a program module that has not been loaded. The File::Where module provides methods to find this information. For loaded files, using the hash %INC may perform better than using the methods in this module.

TiVo File Decoder software converts a .TiVo file (produced by the TiVoToGo functionality on recent TiVo software releases) to a normal MPEG file.
This has the same functionality as using TiVos supplied DirectShow DLL on Windows with a tool such as DirectShowDump, but is portable to different architectures and operating systems, and runs on the command line using files or pipes.
The conversion still requires the valid MAK of the TiVo which recorded the file, so it cannot be used to circumvent their protection, simply to provide the same level of access as is already available on Windows.
Usage: ./objects.dir/tivodecode [--help] [--verbose|-v] [--no-verify|-n] {--mak|-m} mak [{--out|-o} outfile] < tivofile >
--mak, -m media access key (required)
--out, -o output file (default stdout)
--verbose, -v verbose
--no-verify, -n do not verify MAK while decoding
--help print this help and exit
Enhancements:
- Fixes a merge error in tivodecoder.h which included several headers before including tdconfig.h, causing some needed defines not to be defined in those headers
