UR has a quick search feature. If you start it, your typing narrows the target set. The difference is that UR searches keywords when it quick searches. You can search by many things in UR, but unless I missed an option, you can _quick_ search only by entire infoitem.

In principle, it seems to me the quick search should quick search by whatever criteria the user wants, including title only.

How useful would this be? Some utilities search actual folders as you type and launch applications tat way. 1st Turbo Run is probably the best of the breed, but I have licenses to several--well, three to be exact. If my purchasing behavior is any indication, this feature can be quite beguiling. But in fact I hardly ever use 1st turbo run--never the others any more. Only when I can't find an item some other way. But other users feel differently; it's on one of Fallows' favorable lists.
