FullTextSearch: Make check of existing PDFs optional #673

Open koppor opened 5 months ago

koppor commented 5 months ago

I have my PDFs on a NAS. Each time, I start JabRef, JabRef indexes for several minutes. But, the index is already there.

I found out that JabRef checks each PDF for modifications (using the time stamp). On a NAS, this is slow. Thus, I thought, it would be a good idea to make this optional.

Status: Currently, the configuration possibility is made, but no real behavior implemented.

Mandatory checks
