You can always use the find command. For example, if I'm in my home directory

    1.  Command-f in the desired folder.  When you do this, focus will be on 
the search field in the toolbar.
    2.  Stop interacting with the toolbar and move vo to the search section.  
Make sure that the radio button option to search the folder is selected.
    3.  Move vo to the search criteria.  If you don't find the Boolean search 
options than make sure that vo reports the hide search criteria toggle in the 
selected state.
    you will probably figure out the rest.
