Recently, for example, I wanted to look for a certain term used in Ruby files in my /usr directory. Sometimes, you just want to search, and Spotlight is no help. Of course, that means EasyFind is rather slow and while it’s working, it may dominate your CPU and make it nearly impossible to do any other kind of work. Unlike Spotlight, EasyFind knows no limits: there’s no place on your hard disk that it won’t search. Unlike Spotlight, EasyFind knows nothing of interpreting file types, such as Word documents, to strip them of their formatting and examine only the text: it looks at the raw data and that’s all. Unlike Spotlight, EasyFind doesn’t use an index, but finds things the old-fashioned way: it hunts through your hard disk, directly, file by file and, if you’re looking for file contents, byte by byte. That text could be the name of a file or folder, or part of a file’s contents.
