Do the search function of QT client finds all the files from users who use any other client?

Title says it all... ;)

I couldn't find an answer to that question.
I believe the answer to this question should be in the FAQ section.

Thanks in advance for helping me :)

Yes, SoulseekQt and Soulseek NS are using the same network and receive searches and search results from each other.

Yes, and just an FYI: the new Qt client with the "filters" is an INCREDIBLY awesome feature :) Trust me, you'll never look back!

I am very glad to know that. I didn't want to have a smaller database to search. Also I didn't want others who use an older client to not be able to search my files.

I really think this question/answer should be included in the FAQ section. The only reason I didn't become a user of QT is when I tried it a year ago (or so), the search function returned a lot less search results for the same query.
I'm aware that the majority still don't use QT. Maybe if they knew that the search results are intertwined, they would upgrade to QT faster.
