I wanted a way to search for the name of a file locate style but using mdfind. mdfind finds files with the search term in any way associated with the file. I created this little script called mdf, did a chmod +x and placed it on my path:
#!/bin/bash
mdfind "kMDItemDisplayName == $1"
Now I can find files by doing: $ mdf filename
It's better than locate because spotlight is updated live.
