What is catfish?
================

Catfish is a handy file searching tool for linux and unix. The interface
is intentionally lightweight and simple, using only GTK+3. You can
configure it to your needs by using several command line options.

active (Xfce #14689)
- Added /dev to list of standard excluded directories
  - Files within /dev can still be searched if explicitly selected by
