-
- Description: This command is a generic BBS List Text Search! You may
- use it to cross-reference any information. You may also
- use it to extract specific info from the listing.
-
- An example is if you wish to see only Systems within a
- certain area code, then you would specify the appropriate
- info to the BBSList Search prompt.
-
- When doing searches you should keep in mind that the
- listing is kept free-form as much as possible for
- convinience purposes... Therefore if you were looking
- for a "MODEM TYPE" and used "HST" as the keyword, then
- ALL entries which have HST as modem type would be displayed.
-
- HOWEVER if the entry was posted differently then your
- keyword might not work <or skip over a system> a good
- example is for say a BBS system which has post their
- modem type as USR! If USR had been used instead of
- HST then <of course> searches for HST would not work.
