Just type a few letters and search results will appear almost instantly. There are a lot of features which make searching as efficient and powerful as possible. Such as: * Ignore case (e.g. searching for "fsearch" will match "FSearch" as well) * Regular expressions * Wildcard support * Filter support (e.g. only search for audio files) * Exclude certain files and folders * Fast sort by name, path, size, modification time and extension **Attention:** Due to Snap's sandboxing, FSearch can't find every file on your system. For example it won't be able to find hidden files and folders. To access external drives you need to run the following command: `sudo snap connect fsearch:removable-media` If you need wider filesystem access consider using one of the other installation options: Please report issues at: ### Package name * fsearch --- ### License * GPL-2.0-or-later --- ### Last updated * 15 August 2022 - latest/stable * 14 October 2022 - latest/edge This snap hasn't been updated in a while.

They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed. You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor. Tumbleweed: ``` sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy ``` Leap 15.x: ``` sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy ``` If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE. With the repository added, import its GPG key: ``` sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh ``` Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository: ``` sudo zypper dup --from snappy ``` Snap can now be installed with the following: ``` sudo zypper install snapd ``` You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH. Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor ``` ### Install FSearch (unsupported) To install FSearch (unsupported), simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install fsearch ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
