I want to be able to search my saved R script files on my hard drive.
Thankfully the files are all saved with the .R filename extension which
means that "filetype:R" in the Google Desktop Search (GDS) box limits the
search to those files. Unfortunately if I put any other term in the search
box (for example, "hist" to find scripts where I have created a histogram)
then GDS does not find it. It only seems to index based on the filename and
not on the contents of the file. So for instance, if I had a file called
HistAnalysis.R then the search "filetype:R hist" would find it.

Google web based search is working correctly (As somebody pointed out
previously). I am only having the problem with GDS. Has anyone succeeded
with what I am attempting to do.
