Recently, the gnome-search-tool was redesigned. The goal being to make it more HIG compliant. These changes are documented in bug reports #81821, #90774, #83444, and #84723. The following summarizes the changes made to the interface. 1. The menu bar has been removed. 2. The [Simple] and [Advanced] tabs have been removed. 3. The [Show Command] feature has been removed. 4. [Help], [Close], and [Find] buttons have been added. 5. A right click popup menu for search results has been added. The popup menu contains [Open...], [Open Folder...], and [Save Results As...] menu items. 6. A disclosure widget for [Additional Constraints] has been added. 7. The [Process folder contents depth first] rule has been removed. 8. The [Last time modified] constraint has been removed. 9. Two new constraints [Date modified before (days)] and [Date modified after (days)] have been added. Two new constraints [Size is less than (kilobytes)] and [Size is more than (kilobytes)] have been added. The available constraint names are: Contains the text Owned by user Owned by group Owner is unrecognized Date modified before (days) Date modified after (days) Size is less than (kilobytes) Size is more than (kilobytes) File is empty File is not named File matches regular expression Follow symbolic links Search only this filesystem

Is this stuff on HEAD?
Yes. This is all on the HEAD branch.
FYI, The available constraint named "Search only this filesystem" has been changed to "Search other filesystems". By default gnome-search-tool will not descend folders on other filesystems. The user should select "Search other filesystems" if he wants his search to include other mounted filesystems. Thanks, Dennis

The documentation looks great, so I am going to close this bug report.
