NAME

       tracker-search - Search all content for keywords

SYNOPSIS

       tracker-search [OPTION...] EXPRESSION [EXPRESSION...]

DESCRIPTION

       tracker-search  searches all indexed content for EXPRESSION. The resource in which EXPRESSION matches must exist (see --all for more infor-
       mation). All results are returned in ascending order. In all cases, if no EXPRESSION is given for an argument (like --folders for  example)
       then ALL items in that category are returned instead.

       EXPRESSION
	      One or more terms to search. The default operation is a logical AND.  For logical OR operations, see -r.

OPTIONS

       -?, --help

       -l, --limit=N
	      Limit search to N results. The default is 512.

       -o, --offset=N
	      Offset the search results by N. For example, start at item number 10 in the results. The default is 0.

	      Use OR for search terms instead of AND (the default)
