<p>I use the "Find in files" dialog extensively in my everyday work <em>because</em> it is a very elegant interface to <code>grep</code> but nevertheless integrates so well with Geany. However, sometimes I am not interested in the contents of files but merely there names. In these situations I would love to have a similar interface to POSIX <code>find</code> that simply takes find arguments and presents any found paths similarly to the "Find in files" dialog (i.e. clickable to open the respective file). Please consider this as a feature request - I won't try to implement it (partially due to the outcome of my "reload all" PR <a href="https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/54" class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-url="https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/54" data-id="5869022" data-error-text="Failed to load issue title" data-permission-text="Issue title is private">#54</a> :P)</p>
