I. About Word Sniffer.
Word Sniffer is a search utility for Windows(R)NT and Windows(tm)95
that allows you to search for words in files when you don't know the
exact spelling of a word. It is useful when you need to search for
names of people, places, etc. and all you know is how to pronounce the
word and the approximate location of the files this word might be in.
Just type in the search term and the program will list all words
found together with the filenames. It also allows you to conduct
regular expression searches and fast wildcard (i.e., with * and ?)
file searches. See the help file for more information.
The search engine is based on a variation of the Soundex algorithm
developed by Margaret K. Odell and Robert C. Russel [U.S. Patents
1261167 (1918), 1435663 (1922)] from U.S. Bureau of Archives.
The program was written in Visual C++ 5.0 and does not require any
support files besides those listed in the packing list section
and the usual Windows system files. Being a 32-bit program,
it does require either Windows 95 or Windows NT and will not run
on any earlier version of Windows.
- Changes in v1.5:
Fixed evaluation period expiration bug.
Increased the limit on files in the search list to
above 61,000 (enough to search a 5-6 GB hard drive).
- Changes in v1.4:
Fixed access violation error in Windows NT.
Improved support for binary file formats.
Added double-click file open capability in results list.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
