At the risk of being a bit off-topic, just wanted to let people know
about Google's foray into the linux desktop search arena.
The documentation ( http://desktop.google.com/linux/features.html ) says
the following data sources and file types are managed:
* Gmail
* Text files and source code
* PDF and PS files
* HTML files
* Email from Thunderbird
* OpenOffice.org documents
* Image and music files
* Man pages and Info pages
* File and folder names
As a Thunderbird user, I'm looking to see if it works as promised. I
don't see MS file support, not sure if this is an oversight.
