Is there any chance you might get around to also writing a plugin for Copernic Desktop search? It has remained one of the most popular and highly rated desktop search systems. The reason I keep returning to it (I've tried GDS and MSN) is that it is the only one that provides good previews of PDF and many other file types, which is very useful. Copernic provides info on writing plugins here: http://www.copernic.com/data/pdf/cds-file-extractor-plug-in-en.pdf This is great.

Problem: the MSI file seems to install ok but Google doesn't index (its not listed among the plugins) and there is no "Google Desktop Search" entry in MindManager's drop down research list. Tried a "repair" of the install and still no luck. I am running MM Pro 6 on WIN2K. Any ideas? I really would like this.

BUT: Copernic and Mindmaps - that's the missing piece in my whole chain of work.... I add my voice and make a request for Copernic support. S. Michael, that’s really great.

These use the same IFilter as used in Windows Desktop Search. Option #2: IFilterShop Google Desktop Search plugin Beta: http://ifiltershop.com/google-desktop-search-plugin.html Option #3: Extending Google Desktop with IFilter: http://www.trietech.com/articles/002-extending-google-desktop-ifilter-001.php Download Toolbox: http://www.trietech.com/gdstools.php Do you think all three method are equivalent? Are there advantages to one option over another? Thanks! Michael:

I haven't tested the IFilterShop version of the Google Desktop Search but I know that the Google Desktop Search Plug-in that I wrote extracts the Map thumbnail images as well as the content. My guess is that all three would be roughly equivalent. The nice thing about the one in Mindjet Labs is that is a single download. Michael Great question!
