u can have a shell script like "search.sh" which accepts a directory name as an argument..
search.sh may look like
#! /bin/sh
DIR_NAME =$1
# u have to search for all the unix files one by one like and write to serach.log file. Below command will do the same for you
#find DIR_NAME name nameoffile > search.log
find DIR_NAME name cat > search.log
find DIR_NAME name grep > search.log
I am also new to linux.. this solution will work but only thing is the script will be as long as set of unix commands u want to find out.
Cheers!!

NAME
gnome-search-tool - the GNOME Search Tool
SYNOPSIS
gnome-search-tool [options]
or select Search for Files... from a Main Menu or from the Places menu in a Menu Bar
DESCRIPTION
GNOME Search Tool is a utility for finding files on your system. To perform a basic search, you can type a filename or a partial filename,
with or without wildcards. To refine your search, you can apply additional search options.
GNOME Search Tool uses the find, grep, and locate UNIX commands. The case sensitivity of the search depends on your operating system. For
example, on Linux, the find, grep, and locate commands support the -i option, so all searches are case-insensitive.
For full documentation see the GNOME Search Tool online help.
