File::MetaInfo software allows indexing of extracted meta-data and user labels (tags) from files.
The installation process of File::MetaInfo is simple, as users only need to follow a few steps. You start by navigating to the directory containing the package's source code and type './configure' to configure the package for your system. In case you are using 'csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type 'sh ./configure' to prevent 'csh' from trying to execute 'configure' itself. Running 'configure' takes some time, and during the process, it prints messages indicating the features it is checking for.
Once done with the configuration, the next step is to type 'make' to compile the package. Optionally, you can also run self-tests that come with the package using 'make check.' If you are satisfied with the package's performance, you can proceed to install it by typing 'make install.' This also installs data files and documentation relevant to the package. If you want to remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory, you can type 'make clean.'
In case you want to compile the package for a different kind of computer, you can remove the files that 'configure' created by typing 'make distclean.' The 'make maintainer-clean' target is mainly intended for the package's developers. Therefore, if you use it, you may need to get other programs to regenerate files that came with the distribution.
Overall, File::MetaInfo is an excellent software package that simplifies the search of files by enabling users to find them by meta-data and tags with ease. Its installation process is straightforward, making it a suitable software for various users.
