It would be super helpful if FoxTrot had some scripting ability. For example, to return the files that meet some neighboring word search.

In my particular case, I've scripted Apple Mail so that I can retrieve and reply to specific emails (found by email address) without opening the inbox, which helps stay focused. I've set FoxTrot to search my email, so if some scripting capability were added I could do much more powerful searches to respond to emails where I recall keywords but not the sender, etc.

But I'm sure many others would find some scripting ability very helpful outside my use case.
