iReveal is a cross-platform desktop file search tool that combines powerful under-the-hood search technology with great ease-of-use. It scours corners of your hard drive that your system's built-in search tools may ignore. It searches your system in real-time, unlike other programs that can provide out-of-date results. It lets you see files that are invisible in your file manager.
Limitations:
File searches are limited to your home directory.

Universal binary for Mac OSX users
IPTC metadata can now be viewed within the details pane
EXIF and IPTC metadata can now be exported to either text or XML
Reveal now remembers the window position, size, default path to load files from, and last tab shown
Unsaved editing changes can be undone by reloading metadata using Tools >Reload Metadata
Fixed handling of file names that include non latin characters

EXIF and IPTC specifications can be found by clicking on the respective headers before each section in the details pane
Windows and Linux users can pass filenames to Reveal when launching from the command line
Cleaner about window which includes clickable web site URL
Location of exiv2 includes and libraries automatically determined when compiling under Linux/FreeBSD
Fixed a bug in hours were stored in Exif data for 12am (mignight) and 12pm (noon) (Thanks to Nigel Goodman for reporting this)
When loading additional photos the Details pane auto scrolls to the top.
Fixed a bug when editing a photo that only has a make or model tag resulted in an extra space at the end of the camera field.
Mac OSX Disk image has a branded icon
Made use of CanonCs1.FlashMode and CanonCs1.FlashActivity to decipher flash activity
Made use of Exif.CanonCs1.MeteringMode to decipher the Metering mode
Added support the following Nikon D70s shooting modes: Sport, Portrait, Night Scene, Night Portrait, Close Up, Landscape, Auto, Flexible Automatic
Added support for the following Canon shooting modes: Night Scene, Close Up
Added support for the following Fuji shooting modes: Night Scene
Fixed a few bugs detecting and setting the focus mode for some Nikon cameras.
Removed ISO limit, which previosly prevented ISO values < 50 from being set. This was a hack to help fix ISO values for buggy older digital cameras that are only rumored to exist. Film users that want to be able to set ISO values < 50 do exist so removed hack.
Changed references from Exif.CanonCs2.0x2 to Exif.CanonCs2.ISOSpeed
Worked around a compiler bug (?) which caused converted ISO values using Exif.CanonCs2.ISOSpeed to be off by one.
