Isn't *File*underscore*Search" a bit of regression in the
function naming game? Or have I missed the change in naming
conventions again? I notice as I grow older that it's not
one damn thing after the other. It's the same damn thing
over and over again. :-(

But I would have thought "FileSearch" would have been hipper.

Cheers,
