be able to change the header data. A template-defined message is inserted at
the top of the message.
*E

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*B 3006,Find String

* Four different pattern matching algorithms to chose from:
Plain (same as always).
Shell-style wildcard matching (using * and ?).
Regex. Uses the FSF extended regular expression library.
Fuzzy matching. Like plain, but allows one or more mismatches.

* Logic expressions with "and", "or", "not" can be used.

* Spaces and option characters can be included in patterns.

* Exclude or include kludges, tagline, tearline, origin, signature.

- Search backward. Must be first character, if used.
+ Search forward (default). Must be first character, if used.
! Logic not (match when NOT found).
& Logic and (match this AND that).
| Logic or (match this OR that).
< Match "from" header field.
> Match "to header field.
: Match "subject" header field.
# Match message body (but not any control lines).
. Match tagline.
_ Match tearline.
* Match origin line.
@ Match signature.
% Match kludges/headerlines.
= Match case-sensitive (defaults to not case-sensitive).
' Do not match. Place after an option.
^^ Toggle match. Place after an option.
?p Plain search (default).
?r Regex search.
?w Wildcard search.
?f Fuzzy search with one mismatch allowed.
?f2 Fuzzy search with two mismatches allowed.
?f3 Fuzzy search with three mismatches allowed.

You can enclose a pattern string with double ("") or single ('') quotes if
you want to match a sentence with spaces or which contains option
characters.

The backslash is a literal-escape character. If a backslash is found, the
next character is treated as part of the pattern, not as an option
character. Use this for example to search for a sentence with quotes and
spaces.

Spaces are used as separation characters and are ignored, except when
enclosed in quotes.

The first set of option characters on a search expression line is used as
the "global default". The next set of option characters is bound to the
following pattern. A pattern is completed by the end of the line or by the
logic options '&' or '|'.

If none of the options '<', '>' or ':' are used in the global default part,
the default is to search all three.

Some examples:

To search for the authors name, allowing most common misspellings:
?f1 odinn (matches odin, odinn, oddin, odiin etc)

To search for OS/2 and Warp 4:
OS/2 & "Warp 4"

To search for any occurrance of Odinn or Dirk in the from-line:
< Odinn | Dirk

To search for zip file announcements using wildcard matching:
?w "*.zip*"

To search case-sensitive for some string:
= "All Comes To Those Who Wait"

Some regular expression searches:
?r "Warp *4" (matches both "Warp 4" and "Warp4")
?r "OS/*2" & "Warp *4"

NOTE: A common mistake is to forget to escape or quote-enclose option
characters in pattern strings. For example, what's wrong with this,
if you want to search for zip files:

?w *.zip*

Nothing, but the first '*' is interpreted as if you want to search
in origin lines, which is not what you want.

If you decide to write to the Print Device, you must make sure that it is

calls to send the data to the device, and if the device fails for some
reason, you will get ugly Dos messages and prompts plastered all over the

system of the request, defaulting to the originator of the original msg. You

be created, containing the names and descriptions (if any).

NOTE: Only as many files as can fit in the subject can be requested at the

fields. In echo/local areas, only the address macros work.
