is a UNIX command that you can use to quickly find a file or a folder by searching the locate database (which is an index of all items stored on the hard disk). When the operating system is installed, this database doesn't exist, and you must create it and update it regularly if you want to use the locate
command.
After the database has been created, then you can search for items. Click a list item to have it appear in the Finder. This pane also displays the size of the database and the date of last update.
