This is exactly what I was looking for, and I'm glad it works with the latest KDE even though it hasn't been updated in a while - I'm on 4.7.1 and I haven't run into any problems. Kubuntu 11.04, got it through the repositories, package plasma-widget-stockquote. Perfect little widget, cheers. - Oct 26 2011

This program rocks! It puts Nepomuk to shame (granted, Nepomuk tries to do a lot more... but it should at least get filename indexing right).

My only major complaint is the lack of a user-configurable ability to exclude directories. I have one directory with about one million books stored each as a text file with its name as a title, so I tend to get lots of these in results, sometimes getting in the way. I've had to game the system a little and fiddle with exact depths and priorities to get these guys out of the way.

Otherwise, great work! I agree that this should be in KDE by default. Not acceptable to have this essential feature included in Windows but not in KDE! Nepomuk isn't up to the task yet, at least not until the KRunner search does common-sense things like listing filename matches before content matches (sometimes I can't even get it to list filename matches at all). - Oct 03 2011
