Product Description:

Every file on your computer has name, location, date and contact information, but it's not up to you to remember all this, that's what computers are for!
The in-built search functions of Mac OS X (Spotlight) give you the capability to find files, but without the flexibility and ease you may want.
That's where Spotlaser comes in. Spotlaser builds upon Spotlights' features to enable you to get results that are more focused and relevant to your requirements.

  • New: "Save Search Results" checkbox. When selected, a save sheet will display asking for a location to save the Smart Folder.
  • New: "Add to Saved Searches" checkbox in the save sheet. When selected, the Smart Folder will also be saved to the folder ~/Library/Saved Searches/

    I've been using Spotlaser for a few weeks, and I like it -- but I recently heard about MoRU, and it looks like MoRU's gonna win this round. (I'm not affiliated with either product.)
