What is PC-Browse?

PC-Browse is a memory-resident program for IBM PC compatible
computers that helps you find information in your files.  In
its most  basic form,  it searches  a file  (or a  number of
files) for specific  text.  It uses about 60K  of memory; or
3K if you put it into EMS memory.

You  can pop  up a  PC-Browse window  over your  application
program, enter the name of a file to search and the text you
want to find,  and press the search  key.  PC-Browse quickly
finds  and displays  the information  you  seek.  Press  the
search key  again to continue  searching until it  finds all
occurrences of  the text.   You can  paste information  into
your application  program, copy it to  a file, or  print it.
PC-Browse  offers   some  "navigational"  tools,   or  place
markers,  so you  can quickly  move back  and forth  between
pages of text.

PC-Browse offers  a second  level of  search features,  used
with easy-to- build PC-Browse  application files.  First you
can do a linear  search for a keyword in a  file, which is a
word defined  by special characters.   Second, you can  do a
much faster  lookup search in a  file whose keywords  are in
alphabetic  or  numeric  order.  Finally,  you  can  trigger
either kind of search from a cross-reference at one place to
a keyword  at another  place, in  the same  file or  another
file.   This  link  ability   gives  PC-Browse  a  hypertext
quality.
