- I believe he means that if you start a search at, say, Fish 543, and the
- search fails, it might have failed simple because the program desired is
- in the opposite direction. Continuing the search with wrap-around would
- find the desired program.
-
- Of course, if you add the first/last fish option, then it's easy to just
- go to the start and search forward, or go to the end and search
- backward.
