+ <para>The <application>&app;</application> application enables you to search for files on your system. To perform a basic search, you can type a filename or a partial filename, with or without wildcards. To refine your search, you can apply additional search options.</para>
+ <para><application>&app;</application> uses the <command>find</command>, <command>grep</command>, and <command>locate</command> UNIX commands. By default, when performing a basic search <application>&app;</application> first uses the <command>locate</command> command, and then uses the slower but more thorough <command>find</command> command.</para>
+ <para>The case sensitivity of the search depends on your operating system. For example, on Linux, the <command>find</command>, <command>grep</command>, and <command>locate</command> commands support the <literal>-i</literal> option, so all searches are case-insensitive.</para>
