Pinot is a D-Bus service that crawls, indexes your documents, and monitors them for changes. It is also a GTK-based user interface that enables you to query the index built by the service or your favorite Web engine, and display and analyze the results. It makes full use of advanced indexing and search facilities offered by Xapian, features language detection, dynamic document summaries, easy labelling of documents, and internal support for common file types. The D-Bus interface allows easy integration with other applications.

Changes:
CJKV indexing is faster. The spelling database is
populated with CJKV terms too. Stored queries can
index all results or only new results. In
Preferences, patterns can be reset to default
values. The Status window shows whether the daemon
was stopped by or disconnected from D-Bus. A new
plugin for UNdata is included. Possible crashes in
pinot-index, pinot-dbus-daemon, and pinot were
fixed, as well as an issue with signalling between
crawler and indexer. Fixes were applied to build
with gcc 4.3, and for inotify support on some
platforms. A simplified Chinese translation was
added.
