If you use ROX Filer

1. !/bin/bash

autosymlinks () { dir_path=`mktemp -d ~/tmp/gxsearch.XXXXXXX` find ~/ /home/pub/ /mnt/cdrom -iname "$1" -exec ln -s "{}" $dir_path \; echo $dir_path } search_string=`zenity --title="Find files" --entry --text="Enter file name to fi nd"` && { temp_dir=`autosymlinks "$search_string"` rox -n $temp_dir && rm -fvr $temp_dir }

I would rather use locate than find, for speed. But, I don't know how.
