You may have noticed that the internal "FIND" function in EmelFM doesn't work in DSL.
I don't know why, but it really doesn't matter anyway.
It sucks anyway.
Here's how to get a "Find" in EmelFM with what DSL's got.
Step 1. open up a root Xterm and run "updatedb"
It may take a few minutes, depending on your system's speed.
You might add this to /opt/bootlocal.sh to run at every boot, because it takes lees time to update the database than to create it.
Step 2. Open up EmelFM.
Step 3. Click the "Configure" button in EmelFM.
If you can't find it, look harder.
Step 4. Click where it says "Buttons" in the column on the left.
Step 5. Click the "Add" button. Enter "Find" in the name box and "locate %{Enter the filename or partial path:}" in the command box.
Hit OK and use the arrow buttons to put it wherever you want it to be.
Hit OK on the config winow, and you have a nice new Find button, just begging to do your bidding.
Enjoy.
