There are three versions of DH-Grep-PM , one for
386 CPUs, one for 486 CPUs, and one for pentium/586 and
later CPUs.

The install.cmd file will prompt you for a destination
directory and CPU type.  If the destination directory
does not exist, it will be created, the needed files
copied to that directory and a program object will be
created on the desktop.

DH-Grep-PM was designed to be easy to use and there is context
sensitive help available for most if not all of the menu selections.
Pressing the F1 key will bring up the help information.

The user must enter the search parameters before the search can be
started.  The Enter Search Parameters selection is located under the
Configure Search selection on the menu bar.  Once the user has entered
the search parameters, the search may be started. The Start selection
on the menu bar is disabled until the search parameters are entered.

The Stop selection on the menu bar is disabled until the search has
been started.  Selection Stop will bring up a dialog box that prompts
the user to verify the stop request.  If a file is opened for
searching when the stop request is made, the search will terminate
after the file has been processed.  Then the results of the search
will be displayed in the results window.

If the user places the cursor (not the mouse pointer) on a file name
in the results window and then double clicks with the right mouse
button, that file will be loaded into the editor specified in the
edit_cmd.cmd file.  The easiest way to move the cursor to the desired
line or file name is to double click on the line or file name with
the left mouse button.

This utility will only run on OS/2 Warp 3.0 and later releases.
