Library /sys$common/syshlp/helplib.hlb  —  SEARCH  Examples
    1.$ 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.
