[X Newbies] Jaguar Finder's "Find" Does Not Search the Trash

Jerry,

You can eliminate step 2 with the following:

To search the trash, you can set it up as follows: Within the Find feature in
Jaguar, go to 'Add criteria' and set it up so that is a criterion 'visibility:
all'.  This will search invisible folders, which WILL include the Trash.

Plus, if you customize your toolbar ("View -> Customize Toolbar..."), you can
add a search bar option to all your windows.  So, if for some reason you find
the above suggestion not to your liking, then at least you don't have to pick
thru the trash (yuck ;-) -- just open the Trash and type what you want to find
in the search toolbar for a Trash-specific search.

Hope this helps,
Gene
