Version 0.1.

Basically, the example LFA.CTL and SEARCH.CTL files included in this archive
are commented and are easy to follow.
The search.ctl file is just a copy of your FLSEARCH.CTL file, except that
the security level MUST be removed. See example search.ctl file.
This program will currently only work with QBBS type systems, i.e. the
folder specified in the search.ctl file must contain a FILES.BBS file
which contains the filename and description of the files contained in
this folder. The description of the file must also start in column 14
so if your FILES.BBS format contains just one space between each filename
and description it will need to be re-formatted to this spec. See example
below:
2NDRS232.LZH [1] Text file describing how to add a 2nd RS232 port to the ST.
BOMB.DOC [6] How to make a thermonuclear device !!!!! ( Great Laugh !! )
Y2MANUAL.LZH Your Second Manual by Andreas Ramos
Keep the program and its associated files in the same folder.
That's it! I'd be interested to hear from you if you find the program useful,
or if you have any suggestions for improvements. I'll try and incorporate
them if I can. Hopefully, I will be adapting this program to work with other
formats so if you cannot run it at present don't give up hope! *8)
Regards, Robert.
