Halftone Search For Google Desktop 1.2.5

Google screen is a free tool available for download from the Google web site. This powerful instrument is intended as a cross-platform solution that allows you to make searches on your local PC the same way as you search the WEB with Google. But what is good in general cannot be absolutely perfect for every particular case. Halftone Search from Trietech is a Google screen add-on that offers some advanced Google screen functionality to MS Windows users. Google screen uses an HTML interface. Its fine for the net, but on your local screen you would certainly prefer an application that uses native Windows controls. Halftone Search solves this problem by offering you an alternative Google Toolbar UI. With the Halftone Search, you can highlight search terms in the results, customize fonts, etc. The software can extract compressed files on-the-fly and show their contents. It also provides several ways to make searches. You can choose from a pop-up menu in your Windows tray, a form or a dockable toolbar in the main software window. In addition to the interface enhancements, Halftone Search also extends the Google screen search engine itself. As you may know, Google screen uses drivers to collect searchable data from your local files. Drivers are plugins that allow it to understand specific file formats. Halftone Search installs drivers for compressed file archives (rar, zip, arj, tar, gz, bz2, etc.), chm files, MS Help v.2 files (just imagine a searchable index of all the help files on your disks), plain-text files with unicode support, web archives (mht) plus all the drivers you may have installed by MSN screen Search. With Halftone Search you can also manage all the installed drivers. With all of the above in mind, we are quickly driven to the conclusion that Halftone Search is a must-have add-on for every Google screen user with a Windows powered PC.
