Snoopie
Snoopie

A very fast file finder!

Snoopie checks for and returns all the files it finds that begin with your query. Basically, if you ask for 'win', you're asking Snoopie to return all entries that begin with 'win'. Snoopie will first return all the entries that match 'win' exactly, then will return other entries that begin with 'win'. Snoopie is not case sensitive, so a query of 'win' could return 'win', 'Win', or 'WIN'.
