Findwild Is A GUI Wildcard File Search Application For Linux

Findwild is a file search (search in files) utility allowing extensive wildcard selection and exclusion criteria which comes with a GUI interface and can recall past searches.

The following search criteria are available:

• directory path to search, with multiple wildcards ( * ? ) placed anywhere
• file name(s) to search for, with multiple wildcards anywhere
• file name(s) to exclude, with multiple wildcards anywhere
• file content string(s) to search for, with multiple wildcards anywhere
• file content string(s) to exclude, with multiple wildcards anywhere
• file creation/modification date within a desired range
• your choice of delimiters for search strings (defaults provided)
• search the list of files produced by the previous search

Search criteria can be saved and recalled. It is relatively easy to modify a query incrementally, to zero-in on the results you need.
