Wow.  Search files by content is an awesome feature.  Thanks!

It does tend to choke on the first search after launching BibDesk  
(build 20051012).  The search window keeps flashing between a list of  
found files and an empty list until it finally stops with an empty  
list.  I've been able to replicate this a number of times, and I  
always get the following messages in console.log:

Expected integer; found `ref' instead.
Missing or invalid object number.
missing or invalid cross-reference stream.
Invalid stream length 3424; should be 3423.
FlateDecode: decoding error: incorrect data check.
Choked on input: `performed anse one  that govct:rules thTj
stit-T*
...'.

If I delete the first search, however, then all subsequent searches  
(even with the same search term) work just fine and INSTANTANEOUSLY.   
It must use Spotlight, right?  Now if you added smart folders, I  
could do away with keywords altogether...
