<title>Desktop Search Tracker</title>
970
<para>If you have a large number of documents stored on a high-capacity
971
hard disk, it is difficult to search for a required document without using
972
a search tool. Ubuntu uses the Desktop Search tool, which includes an
973
indexing programme called <emphasis role="strong">tracker</emphasis> to
974
easily access specific files. To access this tool, on the <emphasis
975
role="strong">Applications</emphasis> menu, point to <emphasis
976
role="strong">Accessories</emphasis> and click <emphasis
977
role="strong">Tracker Search Tool</emphasis>. The <emphasis
978

<para>The tracker searches for important information in all the files in

your home directory and compiles the search result into a huge database.

So, if you are looking for all documents on the computer that contain a
994
single word such as, 'music', tracker looks up all the files that contain
995
the word <emphasis role="italic">music</emphasis> and displays them in the
996
search results.</para>
