@X0D                Examples of using boolean (and / or) searching
@X0A                ----------------------------------------------
 
@X0FThere are numerous places where PCBoard will ask you for some kind of search
@X0Fcriteria for the text you want to scan.  In those areas you can simply type
@X0Fin a word or phrase or you may create much more complex searches by using
@X0Fboolean logic symbols in your request.
 
@X0FThe symbols "@X0E&@X0F" and "@X0E|@X0F" can be used to mean @X0CAND@X0F and @X0COR@X0F respectively.  In
@X0Faddition you can combine criteria using parenthesis to denote the grouping of
@X0Fthe search.
 
@X0FThe rules below apply at any prompt given where PCBoard wants you to tell it
@X0Fwhat to scan for so the following rules can be used whether you are scanning
@X0Fthrough the message base, the download directories, the users file or the
@X0Fcaller logs.
