DESCRIPTION
SpotInside... I found that Spotlight was annoying because it doesn't tell you where the search word is in the document. You need to open each document and search it again to find out its context.

That's why I made this free software.

SpotInside can...

  • Preview documents with highlighted search word.
  • Preview any kind of documents as text files. Even Excel files.
  • Show "Score" that indicates relativity to the search word.
  • Do a fast search for users who don't need to search whole metadata.
  • Do Punakea/Tagbot compatible tag search.

INGVO  "Save as pdf" is here! Ever wanted to save a list of files as a searchable pdf? With Spotinside you can (version 0.8.2). Many mac users wanted that function wich was built in mac os 9. With Spotinside you can put any set of files or content of smartfolders or folders in one list. Since you can set in the view options what you want to see, there are no limitations, what your printed and searchable pdf will contain. For me this function replaces the following programmes: «Folderlister», «Print Window», «PrintFinder», «Directory Content Printer», and probably some more... Thank you One River Software!!  (Version 0.8.2)

WOLFEATSWORLD  This is the fastest find (search) utility I think I've ever used!

It allows many search options; it's clean and easy to use, and it blows away the competion.

Thanks to the developer, many times over!  (Version 0.7.8)

PHALERON  The Help for SpotInside is in Japanese (and has been for several versions now) so I cannot consult it for troubleshooting the following problem:

Textual searches work only for the main hard disc. Searches on peripheral discs bring up the volume directory (folders, etc), but not the files which subscribe to the textual query.

Is it something I am doing wrong, or have others experienced the same?  (Version 0.7.7)
