Sadly, Fileman has been deleted from Openrepos and Bitbucket. But what feature do you mean exactly? File Browser already supports searching for files/folders from the pull-down menu. You can change the default action that happens when you press the "enter" key in the settings (swipe right twice -> view and behavior -> default filter action -> recursive search). The search will start in the current directory, so you'll have to switch to "/" to search "globally".

Oh, I didn't know they had their code on Github; thanks for the link.

Searching is already very simple:

  1. You can scroll to the bottom and choose "Search" from the bottom pulley menu.

  2. Directly from the filter line:

Pull down, enter your text, press search, be happy.

You can optionally configure that you can press the "enter" key to start immediately:

But that's not necessary.

The "filter line" filters the current view if you enter text and just close the menu without starting a search.

I created a new feedback thread in the forums (here: https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/file-browser-support-and-feedback-thread/4566). Let's move the discussion there :).
