How do I find files based part of filename?

[Jingol]

Hello

I expect see in result :
Browbeat, Reattack, Feather, Greaten, Repeating, Eat, Weathercock, ......

If type Eat spotlight search any filename start with eat

That request would be easier and better in the terminal prompt, but here is an article that will explain things slightly better.

Simple way:
Command-F
Select "Name" in dropdown, "contains" in second dropdown, eat in text box.
"contains" makes it act like a wildcard.

Thanks Craig. As usual I had a round about way of explaining that. Glad I didn't post it.
