While I can see some usecase for many users and desktop search, I myself hadn't used desktop search for years (and, it is probably just a lack of imagination, I cannot imagine what would desktop search be supposed to do in web browser)... Good and clean directory structure seems faster to me (although out of question for most people I know) than search functionality unless batch removing files, for which the combination of 'rm' and 'find' is the IMHO best solution. Hm... but come to think of it, I sometimes use integrated search in mc, but usually when I need to search specific content... Unless beagle, or rather tracker, works in a way that if I don't explicitly use it, I don't notice it, I would rather not have it installed by default. Martin
