BFind
From Pickwiki
This utility will search a file, or multiple files, for the occurance of one or more strings.
If you load this program and run it you can execute with a " ?" after it to get help (e.g. BFIND ?). This outputs a list of options and usage notes like:
This utility will find a string of characters within any record in the file specified. You will be prompted to enter a string to search for. You can edit the items directly or select the items into a select-list. If an '*' is used instead of 'FileName' then all files are searched, or if there is an ActiveList the selected items are searched.
Syntax:
BFIND FileName{[*]} {(options} (same syntax with a SelectList)
* options:
A - c[A]se does matter in the search
C - set the [C]ol# to start the match on (enter numeric)
F - display only the [F]irst match then goto next item
I - only look for matching [I]temId's
S - [S]uppress the display of the matching lines
T - [T]rim each item of redundant spaces before comparing
X - search for a he[X]adecimal character(s)
Example: SSELECT VOC = "[BP]"
xx ITEMS SELECTED
: BFIND * (S
Enter a string to search for: ON ACCPAY
Unless the '(S' option is used matching lines will be displayed with the search-string lined up starting in column 15 of the displayed output. Once the search process completes you'll be asked:
EDIT item(s) selected (#/Yes/No/LineEditor/Quit) ?
You should answer with the line# you wish to edit, [Y] to edit all items that match, [L] to edit all matching items with the Line-Editor, or [Q] to quit processing. If you edit the items they are edited one at a time and you have the option to stop editing items any time. The next question is:
Do you wish to ACTIVATE this list (Y/N) ?
This allows you to activate a select-list of the matching items. This will search all files with a 'BP' in it's name looking for the string 'ON ACCPAY'. This is a general search for any program that writes to the ACCPAY file!
Note: if the 's' option is used, the 'f' option is overridden! Also, if the
'i' option is used, all other options are negated!
I use it all the time to search program files, UV files, O/S files, etc.

** Notes:
** This utility will select a list of items within a file that
** contain at least one of the specified search strings.
**
** If '*' is used instead of a [[FileName]] then all files are searched,
** or if a select list is active, those files in the select file are
** searched.
**
** If no edit then return select list for further processing
**
** If a SELECTLIST is available when this program is executed then
** it is assumed that the select list contains the file names you
** want to search.
**
** There are 2 q-pointers needed in the voc/md of the account you're
** running this utility in:
** 1) VOC or MD
** 2) SAVEDLISTS (_SAVEDLISTS_, &SAVEDLISTS&, POINTER-FILE)
