Well maybe a find-dired or find-grep-dired is enough for him ?
Sure, maybe. Maybe `ls - R' is "enough", or plain `find'. Hard to tell. It
all depends on what he wants to do, and how often he wants to do it.
That's why I (too) mentioned the Emacs `find*' commands, as well as the
general Wiki page on different ways to locate files (including `find-dired'
etc.):
There are other packages that also let you locate files, in different ways.
See http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/LocateFilesAnywhere. And you can
of course use the various forms of the Unix or GNU/Linux `find' command
that
are available in Emacs - see the Emacs manual for that.
That Wiki page is a good place to start, no matter what he really wants to
do wrt locating a file.
