XLocate is a file system index management tool and a front-end to the most popular GNU-Linux fast search utilities. XLocate allows you to maintain a collection of databases for fixed and removable hard disks, shelved CD/DVD/Blu-ray collections, network places, memory sticks etc. You can define search sets and get a high level of flexibility through extensive options. XLocate automatically recognizes through libmagic the most widespread locate database formats (GNU locate, slocate and mlocate/plocate). XLocate’s versions from 0.81 keep track of your disk partitions using their UUID, so you don’t have to specify anything in order to add them to the catalogue. You can conveniently search for files using any of the locate tools, even if not installed in your path. You can also transparently create and update indices from within the application.
