Amusingly I did exactly this, and then forgot to tell anybody about it or upload it anywhere, then I reformatted and lost it :P.
It was /extremely/ useful at the time (indexing comments, etc, which I could then take advantage of with impromptu tagging and TODO etc), so I've been planning to do it again. I just followed a tutorial somewhere; if you do some googling for "spotlight importer" "plain text" "source code" or some combination you should pull it up.
I'll do it again if you have any trouble.
Cheers Luke

Hello,
Has anyone made a Spotlight Importer for PD? Or is there another way to index all content of PD files for spotlight searches in home folder for example?
I just want to search a folder where I have many .pd files for content ex. 'bpm' or whatever... for object/expressions/comments in the patch itself. OSX does not seem to index .pd file content OR am I missing something?
thanks! m
