[QUOTE="Aptmunich, post: 128676, member: 3850"] Well I think that since it is a hidden system file, spotlight doesn't ordinarily search through .plists as you'd get all these useless results when you searched for certain things... (useless for the average user anyway) I'm guessing that since fink is something that probably only more experienced users would try, they figure that you'd just do everything yourself via Terminal anyway... since only *nix users would actually use Fink - and we all know how much those *nix experts love their command line ;) Hey it was a shot in the dark, glad to be of service! Now go download a song from my band: [url]http://www.ampliphonic.de/media/sound/[/url] :) [/QUOTE]
