# Searching
#
# There occasionally arises the need to search all of a hierarchical directory/file
# structure for instances of some regular expression. The following command will
# accomplish this:
# search /RegExp/ `files -o -f -r -t TEXT DirectoryName`
# Example:
search /BitMapToRegion/ `files -o -f -r -t TEXT "{mpw}"interfaces`
