1. INTRODUCTION

1.1About Hulbee Desktop

Hulbee Desktop is specially designed software program for desktop search. Hulbee

Desktop brings together highly-intelligent powerful search tools as Search string, Data cloud

and Hulbeegadget. But even more, as a very flexible solution Hulbee Desktop allows usage of

these tools in various combinations.

Hulbee Desktop is powered by Lucene.Net, which is port of the Java Lucene search en-

gine to the C# and .NET platform utilizing Microsoft .NET Framework.

1.1.1 THE PURPOSE OF HULBEE DESKTOP

The main purpose ofHulbee Desktop is to simplify a full text search on local computer,even without using a keyboard. Hulbee Desktop supports both plain text and the majority of the

most popular formats including archives, Outlook messages with attachments and even audio

files (extracting textual data from tags only).

Formats supported:

Microsoft Word (97-2007),

Microsoft Outlook (2003-2007),

PDF format (.pdf),

Open Office (.odp, .odt, .sxw),

.rtf, .htm, .xml; Archives (.rar, .zip)

Audio formats (.mp3, .ogg, .wma, .flac and others). Only textual tags of audio files areindexed.

Hulbee Desktop can search in different languages. English, German, Dutch and Spanish

are included in the base package. Using intelligent technologies Hulbee Desktop can recognize

all word forms for the supported languages. For example: if search query includes word light

then the search results may contain texts with such words as lights, lighted, lighting etc.

However, some features are not yet implemented in the current version ofHulbee Desk-

top. These are some technical improvements that will be realized in later versions:

Ability to define monitored areas for Hulbee Desktop Indexer (local files andfolders, hidden and system files and folders, net drives, removable media, etc.);

Wider languages range support.

Later versions ofHulbee Desktop also will include additional intelligent features:

Data cloud clusterization;

Search results classification, etc.

Work WithHulbee Desktop

3. WORK WITH HULBEE DESKTOP

3.1Principle of operation

Hulbee Desktop software solution consists of several modules:

Hulbee Desktop browser (hereinafter referred to as Hulbee Desktop);

Hulbee Desktop Indexer(3.2.7 subsection);

Hulbee Gadget (3.2.8 subsection).

Hulbee Desktop and Hulbee Gadget are the user interface modules. These modules de-

veloped to interact with user, they receive user queries and process software responses to form

search results. Search results can be represented in different forms, as:

Search results list (fig. 3.1 marker 6); Hulbee Desktop Data cloud (fig. 3.1 marker 8);

Hulbee Gadget Data cloud (fig. 3.15 marker 3).

Hulbee Desktop Indexer is a very important part ofHulbee Desktop software solution.

This module is used to find and collect textual data from defined locations. In current version of

Hulbee Desktop there is fixed list of locations for Hulbee Desktop Indexer to process (only

normal files and folders on local computer). It is planned to add feature that will allow user to

define locations for Hulbee Desktop Indexer to be monitored (local files and folders, hidden

and system files and folders, net drives, removable media, etc.)Hulbee Desktop Indexer watches over the computer content and traces all changes (new

content added, some files moved or deleted). That is why Hulbee Desktop Indexer is so impor-

tant; it allows Hulbee Desktop to know about current files on a computer. However, usually it

takes some time to process newly added files.

When Hulbee Desktop Indexer processes textual data from files, it saves important data

in special index data base. Index data base allows to find files very quickly. Current version of

Hulbee Desktop can extract data from various sources. Not only the names of files and folders,document files texts, archives and mail messages but even tags of audio files can be processed by

Hulbee Desktop to extract information (see list of formats supported in the 1.1.1 subsection).

Using this advanced techniques Hulbee Desktop has the power to find:

Files by file (or folder) names;

Documents by contained text;

Mail messages by message text or by attached files text or file name;

Audio files by tags (author, genre, album, etc.)

During search process Data cloud (fig. 3.1 marker 8) is updated to correspond with

Search string (fig. 3.5 marker 3) and computer content. Any changes of Search string will

reflect on Data cloud and vice versa.

Data cloud contains characteristic words from computer content, concerning query

words the most. Data cloud words can come from different sources, like file or directory names,

documents texts, tags etc.(see section 3.1 and list of formats supported in the 1.1.1 subsection).

In other words Data cloud presents terms related with query terms by computer content.

In contrast to Search string, Data cloud visually presents possible ways of making a query, i.e.

offers possible variants in an easy and understandable form.

Adding or excluding query words with the Data cloud is a matter of mouse click.

3.3The Principles of Work With Hulbee Desktop

Search with Hulbee Desktop can be performed using any or any combination ofHulbee

search tools (Search string, Data cloud and Hulbeegadget). But any search process can be

divided into several basic steps:

1. Set initial search query;2. Check results of search;

3. Clarify search query;

4. Use search results.

Figure 3.18 Search process scheme

Even so Hulbee Desktop is designed to search on local computer, but it is integrated

tightly with Hulbee Internet search solution. At any moment with the help ofSearch where list

(fig. 3.5 marker 2) it is possible to turn local search into internet search.

Instruction 3.1 Performing Internet search

To perform Internet search for specific query:

1. Go to Hulbee Desktop main window (fig. 3.1). IfHulbee Desktop is not

running refer to section 2.2;2. Click on New search button (fig. 3.1 marker 3) to clear Search string

(fig. 3.5 marker 3) if necessary;

! Click on New searchbutton will clear not only Search string(fig.

3.5 marker 3), but also Search resultslist (fig. 3.1 marker 6) and Da-

ta cloud(fig. 3.8).

3. Click on Search string (fig. 3.5 marker 3);

4. Input search query;

5. Click on Search where list (fig. 3.5 marker 2);6. Chose Internet item from list;

7. Click on Go button (fig. 3.5 marker 4)


31/48

Page 31 of48


8. Browser window will be opened to continue search with Hulbee Internet

search solution.

3.3.1 USING SEARCH STRING

Search string (fig. 3.5 marker 3) is well-proven traditional search tool. It is used to input

words to search through computer content. However Search string support wildcard symbols

(?and *), logic operators (AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-"), fuzzy search and many other tools.

To get detailed description on search query syntax see subsection 3.5.1.

Instruction 3.2 Performing search using Search string

To find a file using Search string:


running refer to section 2.2;

2. Click on New search button (fig. 3.1 marker 3) to clear Search string




ta cloud(fig. 3.8).


4. Type in search query;

5. PressEnterkey or clickGo button (fig. 3.5 marker 4);

6. Review files found in Search results list (fig. 3.1 marker 6);

If search results do not contain desired files for specific query, it is recommended to ad-

dress subsection 3.3.4.

3.3.2 USING DATA CLOUD

One ofData cloud (fig. 3.8) distinctive features is ability to suggest query variants. This

ability exempts from the need of formulating a query exact wording. Data cloud will always be

there to help when it is difficult to formulate a query or if the search subject is unknown. During

search process Data cloud is rebuilt every time a query changes. Adding or excluding query

words builds a new cloud consisting of the words that are the closest to the search subject. Data

cloud allows using of less accurate initial queries and clarifies them easily.

The query should be clarified if it is not sufficiently precise. Query can be clarified by

adding the query words or excluding them.

Query words should be added if:

The query contains few words (1-2);

The items of interest are not found.


32/48

Page 32 of48


Query words should be excluded if:

The query contains unnecessary words, which do not fit in theme of the

search;

The query contains too many words.

Query clarification should be repeated by adding and excluding words until the items of

interest will be found. If the query clarification does not give the desired results, this means that

there are no such files on computer.

Instruction 3.3 Performing search using Data cloud

To find a file using Data cloud:


running refer to section 2.2;

2. Click on New search button (fig. 3.1 marker 3) to clear Search string




ta cloud(fig. 3.8).




6. If query is not sufficiently preciseclarify it by adding (instr. 3.4) or ex-

cluding (instr. 3.5) query words;


If search results do not contain desired files for specific query, it is recommended to ad-

dress subsection 3.3.4.

Instruction 3.4 Clarifying search query with Data cloud by adding the word

To add the word to search query with Data cloud:

1. Select the word in Data cloud (fig. 3.8) which concerns search goal the

most;

2. Click the selected word;

3. The word will be added to the query and highlighted correspondingly.

Instruction 3.5 Clarifying search query with Data cloud by excluding the word

To exclude the word from search query with Data cloud:

1. Select the word in Data cloud (fig. 3.8) to exclude. The query must con-

tain that word (word highlighted correspondingly);2. Point the cursor at the selected word. Strikethrough line should appear on

that word;


33/48

Page 33 of48


3. Click the selected word;

4. The word will be excluded from the query.

3.3.3 USING HULBEE GADGET

Hulbee Gadget (fig. 3.15) combines Data cloud (fig. 3.8) and Search string (fig. 3.5marker 3) in a very compact form of Windows Vista gadget. Hulbee Gadget can be used as al-

ternative to Data cloud (fig. 3.8). But main purpose ofHulbee Gadgetis to receive initial query

and transfer it to Hulbee Desktop application.

Instruction 3.6 Input of search query with Hulbee Gadget

To input search query with Hulbee Gadget:

1. ClickSearch string (fig. 3.15 marker 1) on Hulbee Gadget;



4. Hulbee Desktop main window (fig. 3.1) should appear with results on in-putted query.

Instruction 3.7 Using Hulbee Gadget Data cloud

To use Hulbee Gadget as alternative to Data cloud:

1. ClickSearch string (fig. 3.15 marker 1) on Hulbee Gadget;


3. Press Space key;

4. Hulbee Gadget Data cloud (fig. 3.15 marker 3) should display words

concerning query;5. Clarify query using instr. 3.4 and instr. 3.5 for Hulbee Gadget Data

cloud;

6. ClickGo button (fig. 3.15 marker 2);

7. Hulbee Desktop main window (fig. 3.1) should appear with results on

clarified query.

By default Hulbee Gadgetis docked in sidebar panel (fig. 3.14). But as any gadget it can

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/944239.

3.3.4 SEARCH PROBLEMS SOLUTION

If search results (Search results list, fig. 3.1 marker 6) do not contain desired files for

specific query this means that there are no such files on computer or search query is not precise

enough. There are several ways to continue search:

To continue search on local computer try to repeat search with another query, orrefined initial query;

Try to clarify initial query with Data cloud (instr. 3.3);

Try to search in the Internet (instr.3.1) using initial query or clarified query.

If search results do not contain desired files for specific

query it is possible to turn local search into internet

search. To do so just chose Internet in Search where list

(fig. 3.5 marker 2) and clickGo button (fig. 3.5 marker

4). Detailed instructions can be found in instr.3.1.

Not as a problem, rather a small issue: usually, then search query words are added or ex-

cluded it makes the Search results list (fig. 3.1 marker 6) to refresh with changed content. But

there is one exception for that rule. When search query contains exact name of some file, adding

of words that is similar to the names of directories that build up file path for that file will not

change content of the Search results list (fig. 3.1 marker 6). Similar situation may occur when

some words (similar to the names of directories that build up file path) are excluded from the

search query with exact file name.

35/48

Page 35 of48


In described cases Search results list (fig. 3.1 marker 6) will be not updated as usual,

but this behavior is normal.

If the problem wont be solved, it is recommended to communicate with the support ser-

vice for solving such situations (section 4.3).

3.3.5 CHANGING INTERFACE LANGUAGE

Hulbee Desktop interface is localized on several languages (English, Deutsch, Spanish

and Nederland localization in current version).

Instruction 3.11 Changing Hulbee Desktop interface language.

1. In Main menu (fig. 3.1 marker 4) click on Options;

2. Point cursor at Language item;

3. Language menu (fig. 3.4) should appear;

4. Click on desired language item.

3.3.6 INTEGRATING HULBEE SEARCH TO BROWSER

Hulbee search can be integrated to Internet browser (Internet Explorer 7-8, Firefox and

Opera are supported) by adding www.hulbee.comto browser search providers list. Search pro-

vider can be added during installation (see instr. 2.1, step 13) or during Hulbee Desktop runtime

3.4Typical tasks

3.4.1 DOCUMENT SEARCHINGEffective document search with Hulbee Desktop can be performed using several ofHul-

bee search tools (Search string, Data cloud or Hulbeegadget). In most common case docu-

ment search can be performed using next instruction:

Instruction 3.13 Performing document search using Search string and Data

cloud.

To perform document search:

1. Run Hulbee Desktop (instr. 2.6);

2. Type query word or words to the Search string (fig. 3.5 marker 3). To do

so see instr. 3.2 points 2-5;3. If initial query is not accurate enoughclarify it, using Data cloud (fig.

3.8). Query is clarified through adding (instr. 3.4) or excluding (instr. 3.5)

query words. Clarification should continue until query is accurate enough;


5. If there are no desired files foundrepeat steps 2-4 with another initial

query;

6. If there are still no desired files foundtry to search in Internet (instr.

3.1).

To get better understanding of how to search with Hulbee Desktop see example in 3.4.4

subsection.

3.4.2 SEARCHING FILE BY FILE NAME

File searching with Hulbee Desktop can be performed in same manner as for document

(see 3.4.1 subsection). But for effective search some advanced techniques may become handy.

By default Hulbee Desktop is searching files by content and file name, in this case

search results will include 2 file types:

1. Files with query words in the file name;

2. Document files containing query words within its texts.

When files are searched by name it is obvious that files of 2nd

type does not meet the

search criteria. To limit the search by file names and directory names only name_content field is

used (To get detailed description on search query syntax see subsection 3.5.1). In this case query

will look like next:

name_content:file_name

Where file_name is the name of the file to search or the name of directory containing that file.


37/48

Page 37 of48


Searching by directory name will be effective in case of

rare or unique directory name. In case of common direc-

tory name (like Temp or New folder) such a search

will be useless.

Searching file by name can be performed using next instruction:

Instruction 3.14 Performing file search by file name using Search string.

To perform file search:

1. Run Hulbee Desktop (instr. 2.6);

2. Type query to the Search string (fig. 3.5 marker 3). To do so see instr.

3.2 steps 2-5. If the search target is file named secret file then query will

look like name_content:secret file (without single quotation marks);


4. If there are no desired files foundtry to search using basic techniques

(see 3.4.1 subsection);

5. If there are still no desired files foundtry to search in Internet (instr.

3.1).

Searching archive file by file name will add files con-

tained in archives found to Search results list (fig. 3.1

marker 6).

3.4.3 SEARCHING AUDIO FILE BY TAG INFORMATION

Hulbee Desktop allows to search files of audio formats by file names (see 3.4.2 subsec-

tion) or by tag information. Searching of audio file is as easy as basic document search (see 3.4.1

subsection). To perform search of audio file instr. 3.13 should be used with one remark: search

query should contain tag information to search for, like composition, album or artist name (or

another tag information).


38/48

Page 38 of48


3.4.4 SEARCH EXAMPLE

For example, let us suppose that search goal is Hulbee Desktop manual, but user forgot

how exactly software is named and searches for documentation on search software. Let initial

query be search software. In this case next sequence will lead to success:

1. Type query search software to the Search string (fig. 3.5 marker 3) and pressEnter.Hulbee Desktop main window will look like fig. 3.20.

Figure 3.20 Results on search software query


39/48

Page 39 of48


2. Clarify query by adding Hulbee word from Data cloud (fig. 3.8). Hulbee Desktopmain window will look like fig. 3.21.

Figure 3.21 Clarifying query step 1


40/48

Page 40 of48


3. Clarify query again by adding Document word from Data cloud (fig. 3.8). HulbeeDesktop main window will look like fig. 3.22.

Figure 3.22 Clarifying query step 2

4. Now the query is accurate enough and search target document is displayed in the Searchresults list (fig. 3.22). Double click document (in the Search results list) to open it.

3.5Advanced features

3.5.1 SEARCH QUERY SYNTAX

Hulbee Desktop provides a rich query language that gives the power to use wildcard

symbols, logical operators and many other tools. Hulbee Desktop query language allows con-

struction of advanced queries that improve search efficiency dramatically. There are next tools

available in Hulbee Desktop query language:

Terms


41/48

Page 41 of48


A query is broken up into terms and operators. There are two types of terms: Single

Terms and Phrases.

A Single Term is a single word such as "test" or "hello".

A Phrase is a group of words surrounded by double quotes such as "hello dolly".

Multiple terms can be combined together with Boolean operators to form a more complex

query (see below).

Fields

When performing a search either a field can be specified, or the default field used. There

are several field names reserved: content, name_content and name. The default field is content

field. Content field is used to search on all available data. Name_content field is used to search

only file or directory names. And name field is reserved for service function.

Any field can be searched by typing the field name followed by a colon ":" and then the

query term.

As an example, let's assume that the search target is the document file named "The Right

Way" which contains the text "don't go this way". In this case search query may look like:

name_content:"The Right Way" AND content: "don't go this way"

or

name_content:"Do it right" AND "don't go this way"

Since content is the default field, the field indicator is not required.

The field is only valid for the term that it directly pre-

cedes, so the query

name_content:Do it right

will only find "Do" in the name_content field. It will find

"it" and "right" in the default field (in this case the con-

tent field).

Wildcard Searches

Hulbee Desktop supports single and multiple character wildcard searches within single

terms (not within phrase queries).

To perform a single character wildcard search use the "?" symbol.

To perform a multiple character wildcard search use the "*" symbol.

The single character wildcard search looks for terms that match that with the single char-

acter replaced. For example, to search for "text" or "test" next search query can be used:

te?t

Multiple character wildcard searches looks for 0 or more characters. For example, to

search for test, tests or tester, next search query can be used:

test*

Also wildcard symbols can be used in the middle of a term:

te*t

A * or ? symbol cannot be used as the first character of a

search.


42/48

Page 42 of48


Fuzzy Searches

Hulbee Desktop supports fuzzy searches based on the Levenshtein Distance, or Edit Dis-

tance algorithm. To do a fuzzy search use the tilde, "~", symbol at the end of a Single word

Term. For example to search for a term similar in spelling to "roam" use the fuzzy search:

roam~

This search will find terms like foam and roams.

An additional (optional) parameter can specify the required similarity. The value is be-

tween 0 and 1, with a value closer to 1 only terms with a higher similarity will be matched. For

example:

roam~0.8

The default that is used if the parameter is not given is 0.5.

Boosting a Term

Hulbee Desktop provides the relevance level of matching documents based on the terms

found. To boost a term use the caret, "^", symbol with a boost factor (a number) at the end of thequery term. The higher the boost factor, the more relevant the term will be.

Boosting allows to control the relevance of a document by boosting its term. For exam-

ple, if initial search query is

Grossbay hulbee

To make the term "Grossbay" to be more relevant boost it using the ^ symbol along with the

boost factor next to the term. Search query will look like:

Grossbay^4 hulbee

This will make documents with the term Grossbay appear more relevant. Phrase Terms

also can be boosted as in the example:

"Grossbay hulbee"^4 "Hulbee Desktop"

By default, the boost factor is 1. Although the boost factor must be positive, it can be less

than 1 (e.g. 0.2)

Boolean Operators

Boolean operators allow terms to be combined through logic operators. Hulbee Desktop

supports AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-" as Boolean operators. Boolean operators must be ALL

CAPS.

The OR operator is the default conjunction operator. This means that if there is no Boo-lean operator between two terms, the OR operator is used. The OR operator links two terms and

finds a matching document if either of the terms exist in a document. This is equivalent to a un-

ion using sets. The symbol || can be used in place of the word OR.

To search for documents that contain either "Grossbay hulbee" or just "Grossbay" use the

query:

"Grossbay hulbee" Grossbay

or

"Grossbay hulbee" OR Grossbay


43/48

Page 43 of48


AND

The AND operator matches documents where both terms exist anywhere in the text of a

single document. This is equivalent to an intersection using sets. The symbol && can be used in

place of the word AND.

To search for documents that contain "Grossbay hulbee" and "Hulbee Desktop" use thequery:

"Grossbay hulbee" AND "Hulbee Desktop"

+

The "+" or required operator requires that the term after the "+" symbol exist somewhere

in a field of a single document.

To search for documents that must contain "Grossbay" and may contain "desktop" use the

query:

+Grossbay desktop NOT

The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term after NOT. This is equiva-

lent to a difference using sets. The symbol ! can be used in place of the word NOT.

To search for documents that contain "Grossbay hulbee" but not "Hulbee Desktop" use

the query:

"Grossbay hulbee" NOT "Hulbee Desktop"

The NOT operator cannot be used with just one term. For

example, the following search will return no results:NOT "Grossbay hulbee"

-

The "-" or prohibit operator excludes documents that contain the term after the "-" sym-

bol.

To search for documents that contain "Grossbay hulbee" but not "Hulbee Desktop" use

the query:

"Grossbay hulbee" -"Hulbee Desktop"

GroupingHulbee Desktop supports using parentheses to group clauses to form sub queries. This

can be very useful because it allows to control the boolean logic for a query.

To search for either "Grossbay" or "hulbee" and "website" use the query:

(Grossbay OR hulbee) AND website

This eliminates any confusion and ensures that website must exist and either term Gross-

bay or hulbee may exist.

Field Grouping

Hulbee Desktop supports using parentheses to group multiple clauses to a single field.To search for a document, by file name or path that contains both the word "return" and

the phrase "pink panther" use the query:


44/48

Page 44 of48


name_content:(+return +"pink panther")

Escaping Special Characters

Hulbee Desktop supports escaping special characters that are part of the query syntax.

The current list special characters are

+ - && || ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \

To escape these character use the \ before the character. For example to search for

(1+1):2 use the query:

\(1\+1\)\:2
