One question (sorry for my ignorance): Does the replacement of g-s-t by
t-s-t mean that in order to search files, the tracker deamon needs to be
running?
Also, I presume this means that only indexed files can be located?
What if I have file types that tracker doesn't know/care about? Do I
have to resort to using command line tools for a simple search based
on filename/date/etc?
