Hi

I was trying to run mdfind on some of my files, when I realized the `-onlyin` flag is broken.

Running the command normally:

mdfind -name png

works well for me. But adding `-only` flag, even in the correct directory, does not return anything.

Any idea what went wrong?

from the manual—

man mdfind | more

if if is not working as you expect —
