Beagle already provides the tools/API for that. Its best if it is handled by some related project and beagle continues what it does best, indexing and searching. If you want virtual search folders, try Robert Love's BeagleFS (a beagle based Fuse FS) - does what you want and does pretty good. Moreover, its DE independent. If you want DE dependent solutions, you can use beagle kio-slave in konq to create virtual folders and I think nautilus file-selector has some kind of beagle virtual folder support. - dBera -- ----------------------------------------------------- Debajyoti Bera @ http://dbera.blogspot.com beagle / KDE fan Mandriva / Inspiron-1100 user _______________________________________________ Dashboard-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
