XP file search engine with preview pane

If you search by keywords, you may find similar words with different meanings (track, trail, home and so on...). But it takes really much time, to open files one-by-one to find if that is really what you need. FSA allows to view the file as soon as it is found, not caring whether it is html, doc, txt and even pdf file. 

Introduction

When you collect a large amount of files on your computer while work, sometimes it’s hard to find something necessary. If you search by keywords not by filename, you may find similar words with different meanings (track, trail, home and so on...). 

Click to run FSA flash demo. You will learn what is custom search, preview pane, search report.To find out if that is really what you need demands opening each file in a specific editor (doc – Word, pdf – Acrobat Reader, html – Internet Explorer and so on...). It takes really much time, for each program needs few seconds to be loaded. Also it makes you tired and leads your job to be non-productive. 

This problem would be solved if  some universal preview utility, allowing to view several file types, existed.

Universal preview

FSA allows to view the file as soon as it is found, not caring whether it is html, doc, txt and even pdf file. 

FSA outlines the searching text with the Bold font and centers the document on the found phrase, so you can at time compare the document with what you really need. It’s especially comfortable when you need to check a large number of files of different types.

Search keyword: "found text", preview pane (*)

* Please note: this screen shots belongs to an older version of FSA, it is still available for download from this web-site. The newer version have some changes, for instance, it doesn't allow to replace text as this function was not quite stable.

Moreover, when you have previewed the document, you may copy some abstract directly from the viewer and paste it anywhere you need.

If there are several abstracts found in the whole document, FSA allows you to move between some files and one file’s fragment using special buttons. It’s quite easy and comfortable – “Next file” (moves to the next file), “Next fragment” (moves to the next found abstract) and just the same to the reverse direction – “Previous fragment” and “Previous file”. 

A separate button, “Generate report”, makes the FSA to generate html file where all found files and their properties (path, size, hits) and the text abstract are listed. It’s quite useful when you should communicate to your colleagues, doing similar job, and with the help of such reports you may share your work results.
