Easyfind is a light, free search system for Mac OS X enabling the user to search files, folders, and contents.

Background

Easyfind operates as a replacement for Mac OS X Spotlight but does not require indexing. It is recommended by some technical support sites for Mac OS X users who are having chronic problems with Spotlight or the Finder, or who wish to have some added functionality [http://www.macworld.com/article/48193/2005/12/easyfind.html] [http://db.tidbits.com/article/9231] .

Features

Easyfind uses multithreading to boost responsiveness and, unlike Mac OS X Spotlight, searches inside packages and invisible files.
