Description-en: GNUstep Finder and system-wide search system
MDFinder is a an application to search items already indexed by the
GWMetadata indexing system, a GNUstep implementation of MacOS X's
proprietary Spotlight. Searches can be saved and are automatically
updated if the corresponding files change. Indexing is done in the
background and is switched off by default. To enable it and
configure the search path, use the dedicated module in
the SystemPreferences application.
