The Spotlight feature in Mac OS X Tiger (10.4) does this, all part of the OS. It's integrated so tightly that file contents are available for Spotlight searches immediately after they're written. Spotlight will find text inside PDFs, as well as plain text files, and when you click on the result, you go directly to the page with that text in it. It's made PDF searching as easy as BookManager. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
