Hi Harry, I really hope you are in a minority with this opinion, and hopefully, re-reading the original post you might come to a different conclusion about the OP's request. > Scrolling an alphabetically arranged file system doesn't even qualify as > trivial. The OP asked for a suggestion of a file browser with a certain feature. The feature is to filter/limit the displayed files, roughly equivalent to a shell command like `ls *j*`. I do this type of things all the time. This is a perfectly reasonable thing to do, especially when dealing with lots of files, and when you don't know the full name of a file. > The use of find and/or locate will dig up anything, no matter how deeply > hidden in a plethora of directories. That is true, find and locate are very powerful tools, and worth learning. However, they are specialized tools which need some form of in-depth knowledge, and as such, they not always the first choice in every situation for every user. Cheers, Thomas
