Examples

   1.$ SEARCH CABLE.MEM,JOYNER.MEM "MANUAL TITLE"

     This command searches the files CABLE.MEM and JOYNER.MEM for
     occurrences of the character string MANUAL TITLE. Each line
     containing the string is displayed at the terminal. It is
     necessary to enclose the string in quotation marks because
     it contains a space character.

   2.$ SEARCH/OUTPUT=RESULTS.DAT/WINDOW=9 DISLIST.MEM NAME

     The SEARCH command searches the file DISLIST.MEM for
     occurrences of the character string NAME and sends the output
     to the file RESULTS.DAT. The four lines preceding and following
     each occurrence of NAME are included in the output.

   3.$ SEARCH/OUTPUT=ALLSUB.COM/WINDOW=5000 *.COM SUBMIT

     The SEARCH command searches all command files in the current
     directory for the string SUBMIT. If a match is found, SEARCH
     effectively copies the entire command file to the output file,
     because the window is so large.

   4.$ SEARCH/OUTPUT=COLUMBUS.OH/WINDOW=(3,0)/NOHEAD/MATCH=AND -
     _$ *.DAT COLUMBUS,OH

     The SEARCH command searches all files of type DAT for lines
     containing both COLUMBUS and OH. When a match is found, the
     three previous lines (containing blank line, name, and street
     address) are copied to the new file. The new file COLUMBUS.OH
     is ready to use, because it does not contain headings and
     window separators.

   5.$ SEARCH/OUTPUT=SWAP.LIS/FORMAT=PASSALL/NUMBERS/EXACT -
     _$ /WINDOW=10000 SWAP.PAS SWAP

     This SEARCH command produces a listing file with the line
     numbers at the left margin. The /FORMAT=PASSALL qualifier is
     specified so that form-feed characters in the source are passed
     through. The /EXACT qualifier is specified for efficiency
     (because it is known that the name SWAP in the program
     statement is always in uppercase). The /WINDOW qualifier is
     entered so that the entire file is copied to the output file
     SWAP.LIS.

   6.$ SEARCH/REMAINING CABLE.LOG FORTRAN

     The SEARCH command displays all the lines in the CABLE.LOG file
     that follow the first occurrence of the string FORTRAN.

   7.$ SEARCH OMAHA::DISK1:[EXP]SUB.DAT,DATA.LIS VAX

     The SEARCH command searches through the files SUB.DAT and
     DATA.LIS at remote node OMAHA for all occurrences of the string
     VAX. The list of all records containing the string VAX is
     displayed at the local terminal.
