Hi
It could be locate. There are 2 different ones, one old and a newer called plocate. Both basically scan the entire disk for files, sorts them, and let's you search for files by name. It takes some time to scan, and I think the old version was mostly a shell script. It could also be some other tool. You can use "pstree" to get a tree of all processes. Then look for sort, and see what the parent is. |
