(L)ocate Files by Name - Function Help
--------------------------------------

Subcommands:

  (filename/wildcard) (A) (D) (N) (U) (NS)

  (filename/wildcard) is the filename to scan for
  (A) scans all available file directories
  (D) download all files found
  (N) combine the search with a date scan
  (S) with (N) indicates new files since last date scanned
  (U) scans only the available upload file directories
  (NS) displays listing in non-stop mode

Description:

  Allows you to search the file directory listings for filenames
  which match those you are looking for.  You can also use
  valid DOS wildcards in your filename request if you are unsure
  of the exact filename you are looking for.

Examples:

  TEST A       - search all directories for a file called TEST
  L TEST*.* A    - search all for any file beginning with TEST
  L TEST A D     - find TEST and download it
  L TEST*.* U    - find TEST*.* in the UPLOAD directory
  L TEST*.* N A  - find only new files matching TEST*.*

  Other examples of wildcards:  TEST?  TEST?.ZIP  ??TEST.*

NOTE:

  If the filename is less than 8 characters long and no wildcards have
  been used it automatically appends "*.*" to the name (i.e. searching for
  TEST turns into TEST*.*).

  If an invalid file is requested it will automatically switch to a Z)ippy
  search command.
