Shift-F12 Define Search And Seize
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Search and Seize will search files for a pattern and only load
those files that contain pattern. The command line Define Search
and Seize works a little differently than the function key S&S.
On the command line, spaces are interpreted by DOS as delimiters.
Therefore, the search pattern on the command line can not have
any embedded spaces. On the other hand, the Fkey S&S search
pattern may contain most any character.
Defining S&S also defines the search pattern. When a file is
loaded, press RepeatFind to go to the next occurrence of pattern.
There are actually two find structures - one for the standard
search function and one for S&S. Defining S&S also defines
the search function. However, redefining the standard search
structure has no effect on the S&S pattern. The S&S pattern
remains defined until another S&S redefines it.
