Find File

Grab Find File from OS8, then put it in the Apple Extras folder of OS9.

Now Command F brings up Find File instead of that Sherlock nonsense!

Totally unintuitive, but a nice result.

IIO:
i am not too fond of find file and i always had sherkock desinstalled anyway - but nice find with the keyboard command. sometimes downgrades are the best upgrades.

GaryN:
I may regret asking, but just what is so awful about Sherlock as a file finder?  Ignoring all of the other "channels" that only half worked for a couple of weeks way back when, it does a pretty good job finding stuff on a local drive - at least it does for me anyway. Why does everyone hate it so much?

Protools5LEGuy:
Maybe we could benchmark both.

Ovalking, can you take find file, make a .sit and .bin out of it and attachment it here?

Do  Find File work fine on HFS+?

MacTron:
I'm never liked Sherlock. I'm still use Norton FastFind. To be used with the System Find menu and the Apple+F key combo there is a easy ResEdit mod.
