findwild
This is (yet another) program to search for files, but it works differently.
Findwild offers the following search criteria:
The search criteria can be tuned to narrow the search by excluding unwanted paths / files / strings included in an initial search. Combinations of wanted and unwanted strings can be specified at the file and record level. Search the results of a prior search with new criteria (narrow the search, stepwise, with fast response). Search criteria can be saved in a file and recalled to edit and use again.
