The cp/m 2.2 search first/search next functions must be used
with NO INTERVENING bdos or bios file i/o calls.  Search-next
proceeds from internal bdos pointers and the bios's directory
buffer contents; a close-function, for example, will change
both and a subsequent search-next will be proceeding from
the end of the directory.  It is ok to use selected other (non-file i/o)
calls between search function calls, e.g. print-character.
