I tried to search through my old posts for how I format YouTube embeds for my blog, and it returned 0 results in Spotlight... which was weird. The top of the column view showed the files were online... but that's because's sorted by date modified, and everything below the fold was removed from disk by Dropbox+File Provider, and Spotlight doesn't keep an index of offline files, or warn you that it can't check offline files. It took longer to figure that out than it took to download the files.
@waynedixon well now that I've downloaded all the files I can't test that, but I did try grep -l “iframe” but it just hung (or was merely going to take forever)
