- .description
- WANT let's you search a textfile, like INDEX, for one or two "search
- terms". If two terms are entered, you may select AND or OR as logical
- operators. WANT is very fast. Searches on a 1200 take about one second
- for a 1MB file. A full GUI interface and presetable options via tooltypes
- make this is a powerful search facility. The output of a search can be
- directed to your favorite filereader or text editor. This is version 1.017,
- with a planned release of version 2 around December 1994.
- WB2.04 & up. ReqTools Library required, but not included. EGREP and GAWK
- are required and included. CLI or WorkBench. GiftWare.
- IMPORTANT: The docs for WANT are located in WANT/DOCS. Please read
- them before installing and using WANT. Installation requires you to
- leave all of the included files in their directories.
