I'm new here, but I'm already disappointed that a developer would suggest a plugin that doesn't do what he said.

These files don't even have comments associated with them.
Given your documents are text documents - why don't you try pasting a couple of them (yes the whole document) into the corresponding Comments column and then experiment with the Q&S Tags from Comments facility - after which you can remove the text from Comments.

I've no idea if DaltonST had this in mind when he suggested you take a look at his PI. If you look through the version history of the PI you'll see there have been many enhancements - many of which stemmed from posts such as yours.

I use Windows Search in a similar way as you're using Ransack. When I get interested in something I do the relevant searches, I save the results paths to the clip board, paste that into Notepad++ and make it into a csv that I read with the Import List PI to create a Reading List, add a Tag etc.

The Calibre (GUI and Command Line) and it's PI's provide 'canned' solutions to many problems. But they also provide a rich set of tools, which with a bit of lateral thinking enable the user to fashion their own solutions.
