Hi,

No, I can't use Calibre for this.

I've found a few tools which help me search files by their content. Especially Houdahspot, but also Finder Search, File Search Machine, etc.

But I want to be able to take the resulting list, remove files which turn out not to be relevant, mark ones which turn out to be relevant, and create a usable reading list which I can go through over the next few days. Without having to remove the files from their original folders, and preferably without creating duplicate files in a project folder.

I am using a Mac.
