A long-awaited feature of Pantheon Files in elementary OS is indeed the search feature. So far it was lacking it which made many people complain as this should be a basic feature in a file manager app. Now finally the day has come, the feature has been implemented and already landed in the trunk. It’s been developed by Tom Beckmann and been backed by a $450 bounty.
Here’s a screenshot of the search feature in Pantheon Files (click to enlarge):
As you can see it’s pretty simple, there’s no search button, but the address bar is used (after pressing Ctrl + F). How do you like it? Will you miss the search button or do you like the simplicity of it?
