Whoa! Thanks! I had no idea you could do that level of customization (and that people were already doing it). I will have to give this a try. (Though I agree it's a feature it should be added, and I don't think it's particularly baroque - it seems kind of obvious that if you're trying to get a list of available actions, you don't want to look at projects that contain no available actions.)

As a result of the search, you get a new window which only has the matching projects shown in the sidebar and thus in the window itself.

A listing of the properties with which you can describe your desired projects is shown here:



I really like this script, and use it frequently. A number of particularly baroque features have been added at my suggestion, but I can't take the credit for all of them :-)

If you need help installing the script, see the FAQ.
