Nemo is good at searching for files and folders. I use Nemo file manager in Xfce and would like to add the Nemo file-search action to WhiskerMenu in the same way Catfish is integrated to Whisker Menu following this answer : enter image description here Creating links to folders of other partitions in some location in $HOME and searching there would extend the search to those folders too, something that Catfish doesn't do. I would need a command that would start Nemo (by default in $HOME) and search for a variable file-name. During search, the CPU is put to work by the nemo process; enter image description here but nemo --help-all and man nemo show no useful options.
