In addition to copying files, there are two HFS related functions that haven't
been duplicated in desk accessories until recently. They are creating new HFS
folders and launching documents.

There's a new DA called HFS Locater Plus from PBI Software that does all of
these and a lot more.  Locater is a DA that searches your HFS volumes for files
files by name (with wild cards) and/or by modification/creation date.  If you
run it with an application, Locater defaults to finding documents for that
application (e.g., find me MacPaint docs if I'm in MacPaint.).  The default
can be changed to any file or a different application.

Once you've found a file, you can do almost anything to it--copy it to another
folder or to a different volume for quick backups, you can move it to another
folder, rename it, delete it, show the Finder info, or launch it.  When you
launch a document, Locater finds the application and sets things up so that
when you quit the current application, the new application will be launched
and the selected document opened--exactly the same as double-clicking on the
desktop.  The launch is immediate if you use Locater from the Desktop.

Locater also lets you:
	- make new folders at any time during a search,
	- save the full pathnames of matches in a text file (a mini-catalog),
	- restrict the search to a particular sub-tree or a particular folder,
	- and lots more.

One other nice thing Locater does for you is set up the Standard file routines
so that the next open will display the folder that contains the file that
you found.  This makes Locater nifty for finding a misplaced document and
then opening it in the application.
