In the "Settings Manager", in "keyboard", "applications shortcuts", clic
on "Add"
Command line: catfish --path=/mnt/Donnees/Docs_perso/Documents
Ok
and the shortcut for me is : Super+Alt+D
I have other shortcuts for Images, Downloads,..
this command can make it search in full text (in the content of files) :
catfish --path=/home/ben/Documents --fulltext
You can have these commands in a launcher of the panel too.
Hope it can help you

Hello xubuntu folks,
I did check the mailing list archive for for keywords like "synapse"
... couldnt find any; so I hope that this topic is "new" and worth
discussing here.
I consider moving from ubunut/unity to xubuntu/xfce (actually running
a xubuntu desktop for some weeks by now). The one thing
that is really missing for me: fast access to files. The unity file
lense remembers all the files I touched lately (probably using
zeitgeist) ... and it is
extremly helpful. Instead of opening up a file manager and navigating
directories; I just press windows-f and start typing parts of the file
name ...
(most of the time, i dont need to type anything, because the file
lense might actually the file i am looking for already ;-)
With xubuntu/xfce, there is no such feature. The whisker menu and
application finder focus soley _applications_; not on files with user
data.
In earlier years, there was "synapse" as replacement file launcher
(using zeitgeist under the covers) that provided similar functionality.
But synapse is no longer actively maintained; it isn't even available
in the 14.04 repositories any more.
So - long story short:
1) is there an existing "file lense"-alike solution for xubuntu?
2) if not - are there any thoughts/plans to provide it at some point?
Thanks everybody,
Edwin
