      permitted.
@X0F
   Subcommands (specific to the "global" version)
@X02
      @X0BVER             @X03Displays version and registration information

      @X0BNS              @X03Doesn't pause at the end of a conference search in
                      order to allow flagging of files and also sends an
                      'ns' parameter to PCBoard itself when issuing the
                      search.

      @X0BP               @X03Pauses before each conference is searched, asking the
                      user whether or not to search the conference.  The
                      prompt the user is given can accept the following:

                      (Y)es, search this conference.
                      (N)o, do not search this conference.
                      (A)bort all further conference searching.

      @X0BNP              @X03Specifies the exact opposite of the 'P' subcommand.

      @X0BTP              @X03Pauses in each conference asking for filename to search
                      the conference with.

      @X0BNTP             @X03Specifies the exact opposite of the 'DP' subcommand.

      @X0BSTP             @X03Pauses in each conference asking for which directories
                      to search in the conference.

      @X0BNSTP            @X03Specifies the exact opposite of the 'STP' subcommand.
@X0F
   Description (specific to the "global" version)
@X03
      As systems need to further organize their file areas, many are turning
      to multiple conferences.  It becomes quite cumbersome to manually
      join a conference, do a filename search, then join another conference,
      do a filename search, etc.  This command will do this automatically for
      you.
@X0F
   Examples (specific to the "global" version)
@X03
      One of the more common global filename searchess would be one that
      doesn't prompt you in each conference if you wish to search the
      conference or not.  To perform this type of filename seacrh, you would
      enter the following command:
@X0E
          LG;NP
@XFF
      If you wanted to make the global filename search behave exactly like if
      you manually did a filename search in each conference, which includes
      asking you for a filename and directories to search, you would enter the
      following command:
@X0E
          LG;TP;STP;NP
@XFF
      If you wanted to do the exact same thing as the previous example except
      have the global filename search ask you if you wanted to search the
      conference, you would enter the following command:
@X0E
          LG;TP;STP;P
@XFF
@X0F
   Subcommands (exact copy of the "regular" version)
@X03
      @X0B(Directory #)   Directory #.@X03  When using this command, you must specify
                      a directory or range of directories that PCBoard should 
                      search for the desired file(s).  You may list a single 
                      directory, a range of directories in the format [#-#] 
                      or a list of directories in a [#;#;#] format.  There 
                      are three letters you may use to represent special file 
                      directories.  If you use A for the directory number, 
                      PCBoard will search all file directories in the current 
                      conference.  Likewise, if you use U for the directory 
                      number, the upload directory of the current conference 
                      will be searched.  Finally, if you have sufficient 
                      security, you may use P to specify the private upload 
                      directory for the current conference.

      @X0B(filename.ext)  Filename to search for.@X03  In order to search the file
                      directories for a filename you must supply the filename
                      you want PCBoard to search for.  The filename you
                      specify can be a simple filename like READTHIS.TXT, or
                      more frequently something that contains wildcard
                      characters like READ*.*.  The advantage in using
                      wildcard characters is that you are not required to
                      know the exact filename.

      @X0BD               Flag the files for download that are found in the
                      search.@X03  If a file that matches the parameters is
                      located, it is flagged and prepared for download later
                      during the call.  If more than one file is found, all
                      files will be flagged.

      @X0BN               Combine the locate search with a new file scan. @X03 This
                      subcommand will help limit your search by only
                      searching for files equal to or after a specific date.
                      If you use the N command you also need to include the
                      minimum file date from which the scan should search
                      for.  If you would like to use the date you last
                      scanned for files you may simply add an S to the N
                      subcommand.

      @X0BNS              Display the files found in nonstop mode. @X03 Files are
                      displayed in nonstop mode (no More? prompts will be
                      displayed).
@X0F
   Description (exact copy of the "regular" version)
@X03
      Quite often you will want to search the file directories on a BBS to
      determine if a particular file exists on the system.  If you are
      looking for a particular filename, you would use this command to help
      you find that filename.  Most of the time your search will include some
      sort of wildcard like TCRN*.* or similar.  If you attempt to search for
      HSXM, PCBoard will automatically append an *.* making the search
      criteria HSXM*.* to help you find the file(s) you are looking for.
@X0F
   Examples (exact copy of the "regular" version)
@X03
      If you want to locate any files that begin with ABC in all file
      directories for the current conference, type the following at the
      conference command prompt:
@X0E
          L;ABC;A
@X03
      If you wanted to search for files that began with ABC in directories 1,
      3, 9, and 15, type in the following command:
@X0E
          L;ABC;1;3;9;15
@X03
      If you found that two many files were showing up on your searches, you
      may want to restrict the files you search for by date.  To do this, you
      would use the N subcommand that was described previously.  For example,
      to search for any filename that begins with ABC in all directories but
      only show those that have a file date equal to or later than  10/21/93,
      type the following at the command prompt:
@X0E
          L;ABC;N;102193;A
@XFF
