I think windows and Mac both do this by default, no? Just disable the web search and your local full text is what you're left with.

It doesn't index text in local image files, and it doesn't index over the full text of all the webpages and epubs I've read.

I believe they meant they want something that searches only content the user has personally directly accessed, not ALL local content.

Spotlight on Mac will show you recently opened, or frequently opened, files first.
