HoudahSpot - Enhance Spotlight's search powers
Authored by: djimi on Sun, Jun 22 2008 at 3:54PM PDT
Nice points. I've been using Macintosh OS since version 6. Version 10.5 Quick Look is the saving grace of this OS. I give not being able to sort by size an "F-" for this release. I spoke with the OS X (before it was released) devlopers from Apple via my work and got to meet with them able how Sherlock nee "Find File" had evolved from OS 7.5~OS 9. I spoke with them for about 30 minutes on the Find/Sherlock functionality. I can't believe after doing so many good things, that they went back to the stone age, and decided that to omit such a handy, integral, *basic* feature in searching. Please don't reply with an excuse for Apple. There isn't any excuse for this failure. Paying for software to do something that the OS should inherently do? Directory X is great, but again, this is what the Finder (hello -- what's the name of the OS GUI SHELL??) supposed to do.
