AFAIK Beagle and Tracker are free software. However, nothing beats Google Desktop. It's changed my work life enormously! I'm forced to use that other, horrible OS and its even worse mail client, but by indexing the whole lot everything is just a very quick search away. Google Desktop can be pointed at network drives, so it'll index those for you too. -- Rev Simon Rumble <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www.rumble.net The Tourist Engineer Because geeks travel too. http://engineer.openguides.org/ "a skid mark on the bed sheet of Australian politics" - John Howard, as described by Dean Mighell -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
