Description
Fast Find is a file finder for MS-Windows. A file pattern is
specified by the user, such as "*.bmp". Fast Find then scans
across drives and directories for files that match the pattern.
The user may narrow the search to a specific drive and parent
directory. Or even scan for files with particular attributes
set. This feature is useful for tasks such as, finding all
hidden and system files, or finding all files modified since
your last backup (if your backup software resets the archive
bit). Fast Find automatically detects your file extensions.
It also lets you launch found files with a simple dbl-click.
In addition, Fast Find supports three modes of operation:
1] Very Fast - Fast Find will "hog" the CPU, this will cause
long delays, and may slow or even stop other
running apps. Use this mode only when no other
CPU intensive tasks are running.
2] Fast - This is the default setting. Fast Find will
occasionally yield execution to the environment
for the processing of events.
3] Slow - Use this mode when you need to run Fast Find in
the background. Fast Find will routinely pause
to allow all other apps access to the CPU and
disk. This may greatly slow the file search.
