Nautilus should have a search option!

How about using Actions -> Search for Files from the main menu?


Thanks for pointing that out! I never thought of looking there...
I expected it to be accesible from the file browser window. Placing it there would allow (I know is not easy) feeding the result in the current window and easily jump to the place where the file is found.


Placing the "search for files" in the Actions menu is welcome but counter intuitive. Also, searching starting from a directory downwards the hierachy is hard (copy the location, paste in the search dialog, insert pattern, start searching, when the file is found -> open directory (another window is spawned), while it could be just : press find (default start dir is the current, while having accelerators for / and home), file is found, double click -> go to the file (while the list with the results remains visible on the left(or other) side of the navigation window until a button is pressed.
