Example search results.

Paul Walsh - Launch Contact
Paul.jpg - Launch viewer
etc,

I've downloaded the Search Tool app, but it doesn't cut it. Maybe an update with above features would be great.

Thanks.
I agree with you. We miss a decent globla search function.
Don't know spotlight but also something google desktop search would be nice. It is really strange that it does not exist a really decent open source search program.

But the list of good apps that we need could be more long:
- a good calendar app with PIM functions or GTD functions (even better)
- a better email client than modest
- editor for word/excel documents
etc etc
