;;; Commentary:

;; This package provides an interface to the Xesam, a D-Bus based "eXtEnsible
;; Search And Metadata specification".  It has been tested with
;;
;; xesam-glib 0.3.4, xesam-tools 0.6.1
;; beagle 0.3.7, beagle-xesam 0.2
;; strigi 0.5.11

;; The precondition for this package is a D-Bus aware Emacs.  This is
;; configured per default, when Emacs is built on a machine running
;; D-Bus.  Furthermore, there must be at least one search engine
;; running, which support the Xesam interface.  Beagle and strigi have
;; been tested; tracker, pinot and recoll are also said to support
;; Xesam.  You can check the existence of such a search engine by
;;
;;   (dbus-list-queued-owners :session "org.freedesktop.xesam.searcher")

;; In order to start a search, you must load xesam.el:
;;
;;   (require 'xesam)

;; xesam.el supports two types of queries, which are explained *very* short:
;;
;; * Full text queries.  Just search keys shall be given, like
;;
;;     hello world
;;
;;   A full text query in xesam.el is restricted to files.
;;
;; * Xesam End User Search Language queries.  The Xesam query language
;;   is described at <http://xesam.org/main/XesamUserSearchLanguage>,
;;   which must be consulted for the whole features.
;;
;;   A query string consists of search keys, collectors, selectors,
;;   and phrases.  Search keys are words like in a full text query:
;;
;;     hello word
;;
;;   A selector is a tuple <keyword><relation>.  <keyword> can be any
;;   predefined Xesam keyword, the most common keywords are "ext"
;;   (file name extension), "format " (mime type), "tag" (user
;;   keywords) and "type" (types of items, like "audio", "file",
;;   "picture", "attachment").  <relation> is a comparison to a value,
;;   which must be a string (relation ":" or "=") or number (relation
;;   "<=", ">=", "<", ">"):
;;
;;     type:attachment ext=el
;;
;;   A collector is one of the items "AND", "and", "&&", "OR", "or",
;;   "||", or "-".  The default collector on multiple terms is "AND";
;;   "-" means "AND NOT".
;;
;;     albinus -type:file
;;
;;   A phrase is a string enclosed in quotes, with appended modifiers
;;   (single letters).  Examples of modifiers are "c" (case
;;   sensitive), "C" (case insensitive), "e" (exact match), "r"
;;   (regular expression):
;;
;;     "Hello world"c

;; You can customize, whether you want to apply a Xesam user query, or
;; a full text query.  Note, that not every search engine supports
;; both query types.
;;
;;   (setq xesam-query-type 'fulltext-query)
;;
;; Another option to be customised is the number of hits to be
;; presented at once.
;;
;;   (setq xesam-hits-per-page 50)

;; A search can be started by the command
;;
;;   M-x xesam-search
;;
;; When several search engines are registered, the engine to be used
;; can be selected via minibuffer completion.  Afterwards, the query
;; shall be entered in the minibuffer.

;; D-Bus support in the Emacs core can be disabled with configuration
;; option "--without-dbus".  Declare used subroutines and variables.
