Oh and I just set up Medusa. Planned to integrate with Natilus, but
doesn't seem to on Debian testing (Gnome 2.6) yet (maybe I missed
something?).

apt-get install medusa
vi /etc/medusa/medusa.conf
/etc/init.d/medusa start
... manually run the indexer - presumably you should add it to
cron.... Wait till it finishes.

# Find some chess games
msearch 'gnome-search:[file:///]file_name matches *.pgn'

# Files with "Robert" and "Fischer" in

msearch 'gnome-search:[file:///]Content includes_all_of Robert Fischer'

I didn't get a meaningful "AND" to work.

Hmm seem to be a few interesting <urm> features - but might be worth
pursuing. Not least the indexing is run as "root" so all your data
is visible in the Index by default. You have secrets?
