> Yes there is another way: check man swish++.conf.
 
> For example (swish++.conf):
 
> FilterFile *.gz         gunzip -c %f > @/tmp/%B


> So you could do, for example:
 
 
> index++ -v3 -i ~/tmp/index_readonly_media -c
  /path/to/your/swish++.conf /ro_or_dir_wo_write_permission

2. Indexing files with spaces in the file or path name


It works and there are FilterFile examples in the example swish++.conf.
