This isn't the proper conclusion. What you need is a metadata  
importer. They've usually put into /Library/Spotlight (in /System/ 
Library/Spotlight Apple stores their own ones). The TeXShop  
application comes with an internal (inside the application's bundle)  
TeX.mdimporter. Originally it was written by Norm Gall: http://
