Google Desktop Search Released for Linux



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.
