     FILE is a program that automatically commences at A0: and looks
through all drives and all permitted user areas (set by default to
look through all from 0-15) for a particular file.  Much easier to
use than SD, which requires you to first go to A0: as SD commences
from the loction you are currently at and skips those prior to it..

     To use:    (assuming you want to find a file named HELLO.ASM)

B4>FILE HEL*.* <cr>         (wild cards are acceptable)

     It then starts at A0: automatically and looks through all drives
and all user areas for any file starting with the characters 'HEL'.
It will then print the location of all such files.   You can abort at
and time with a CTL-X.  Currently set to scan two drives.

A2>FILE <cr>                (displays help message)

     This will display the syntax of the program and return the user
to CP/M.

     FILE optionally supports dynamic changes of maximum drive and
user area so that a bulletin board program can set these according
to user status (normal, special, twit, SYSOP, etc.)  See FILExx.ASM
(or if squeezed, FILExx.AQM) for more information.

P.S.  In 1981, some person renamed the program FILEFIND, it has now
      been correctly renamed to that given by the original author.
