I updated my search plugin by adding a progressbar:

It also prints out the number of files it searched. There were some reports of a search taking over a minute, but with GNU/Linux and winxp I'm getting about 3 seconds for a little over 9,000 docs (I think I'm searching two different copies of pd-extended libs so that should be well over what you'd typically be searching). If people are getting long searches please start by telling me how many files you're searching. Also, the progressbar updates don't start until it's built a list of files and sorted it, so if it's taking a long time when you search before the progressbar appears then that may be the culprit.
Now that the interface updates live I don't really think there's much need to build an index. You can start reading the first results immediately and even scroll the list as it finishes printing the results. (I guess I can also add a "Cancel" button, too.)
Let me know if there are any bugs.

Looking very good! I consider this something everyone should install now. The progress bar is a good enhancement. I wonder if it could somehow fit in to the GUI elements better somehow. Its fine how it is, but it seems a little out of place.
Looks like there are some debug messages still in it, I get these when hovering:
filename is 5.reference/all_about_arrays.pd basedir is /Applications/Pd-0.43.3-extended-20121008.app/Contents/Resources/doc filename is 5.reference/loop~-help.pd basedir is /Applications/Pd-0.43.3-extended-20121008.app/Contents/Resources/doc filename is 5.reference/all_about_arrays.pd filelist is 7751 filelist is 7751
