I use a great little PD program called search.  It is memory resident, and
allows most programs to find most files that are not in the current disk/dir.
It is very small, only 3584Bytes for the .com file.  The only drawback is that
you need to have diskettes in all of the drives specified in your search path
(except for the hard drives of course, good luck jamming a floppy in there :-)

I would go ahead and post it except for the recent warnings from the powers
that be about posting excecutables here.  If enough people send mail asking
for it, I will go ahead and post it though.  If you send a mail request,
please mention if you think that net.micro.pc or net.sources would be a more
appropriate place.
