[Xapian-discuss] Indexing images, .zip, .dwg and other binary files

I have scoured the documentation and mailing list but can't find what seems
to be an obvious question.

I would simply like to index binary files (images, zips, dwg files) so that
they are included in the search results.  They wouldn't need to be parsed
for content, only have the filenames searchable.

Is this possible with Xapian?  If not has anyone come up with an alternate
strategy?
