HoudahSpot

HoudahSpot is a powerful file search tool that allows users to find files by typing just a few words through a quick search field. Users can press enter to start the search when ready, and narrow down the search through a variety of detailed search methods, such as file name, text content, extension, creation date, etc. HoudahSpot supports Boolean operations, allowing users to find files that meet specific combination criteria. It also allows searching for multiple folders simultaneously, including specifying which subfolders contain or exclude. Users can customize how search results are displayed and drill down to explore and select files through information panels, quick views, and text preview features. HoudahSpot also offers a template save feature that allows users to quickly create new searches later, and introduces features designed for advanced users, such as advanced queries, duplication of result lists, and automated searches. HoudahSpot 6 brings new features, including searching Apple Mail message files, tag clouds, and more file organization and filtering options, along with improved support for VoiceOver, making it a comprehensive and user-friendly file search solution.
