Hi Anthony,
It looks great!
If you were looking for new features, please consider the following
features:
1. Show the snippets from the file where the content was found, with
some context lines around the matches.
2. Allow specifying regular expressions for content search (optionally).
These are killer features that any file content search app must have in
my opinion.
You can see an example implementation in AstroGrep (Windows only):

If anyone is interested I've posted another hopefully useful program
along with the source.

The File Search utility is a stand alone tool for Mac, Windows, and
Linux to search for files using a variety of criteria including
containing text, file size, and file dates. The full source code is
available on github and it has no dependencies other than the LCL, so
anyone should be able to compile with a default installation of Lazarus.
I believe the program is bug free and pretty much feature complete per
my original idea. If anyone would like to leave a comment of make a
suggestion I'd open to your ideas.
