How do I do advanced searches in Mac OS X?
- by Philip
I don't get it. I just want to do simple searches that work. When I type part of a filename, I want to see all the files that have that part of the filename. I know how to do this in terminal, but it takes time to open and then to track down the file once it finds it. Is there a way to do this from the Finder? I want to be able to do *.doc and get all my docs, or hello*.txt and find all filenames of that form. Am I missing something obvious?
Bonus points if you can tell me how to do boolean searches from the Finder (filename:hello*.txt AND modified:4days) or something.
OSX Snow Leopard.
Thanks!
