Have you ever forgotten the full name of a file you're looking for?
Have you tried using "DIR" to find it?  Can't seem to do it?
  
SEEK is the section of the command "DIR" that DOS forgot.  SEEK allows
you to search for a section of a filename through all subdirectories 
(or not) from a given starting point.  And its output is fully pipeable
or redirectable!

While DOS 5.0 and 6.x allow you the option of /S to search recursively
through subdirectories, you still must give "DIR" at least the first
letter of the file you are looking for.  Not SEEK!  SEEK allows you
to look for ANY section of the filename.  For example:

     SEEK EE \            (Search for files with EE from the top level)

     C:\SEEK.REG                            14 06-10-94
     C:\GLOBAL\SEEK.EXE                 12,040 06-13-94
     C:\WAVS\BEEBUZZ.WAV                 8,966 05-24-93
     C:\TMP\GOTIT.TEE                      676 02-09-94

Notice how all of the filenames contain EE?  But, wait, there's more!
SEEK can even look for files based on the DATE or SIZE of the file!  Let's
continue the example above:

     SEEK 06 \ /D         (Search for files with 06 in the date from the
                           top level)

     C:\SEEK.REG                            14 06-10-94
     C:\GLOBAL\SEEK.EXE                 12,040 06-13-94
     C:\WINDOWS\WIN.INI                 64,344 03-06-94
 
See?  It finds the 06 no matter where it is in the date.  Can DIR do
that?  (The benefit is that if you forget the name of the file, perhaps
you might remember approximately when it was created/modified ... now
you can find it!).  Or, perhaps you are looking for a file with a certain
size.  SEEK can find that also:

     SEEK +12000 \ /Z     (Search for files with a size greater than or
                           equal to 12000 bytes [12K] from the top level)

     C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT                    14,766 08-22-93
     C:\GLOBAL\SEEK.EXE                 12,040 06-13-94
     C:\WINDOWS\WIN.INI                 64,344 03-06-94

Notice, all file sizes are above 12,000 bytes.  SEEK will also allow you
to search for smaller files (by using a - instead of the + in the example
above).

SEEK requires two files: SEEK.EXE and SEEK.REG.  The REG file
contains registration information; an unregistered copy has only
the string "UNREGISTERED" in SEEK.REG.  SEEK.REG MUST be placed
in the top level of the drive you are working on; SEEK.EXE can be
placed anywhere along your path.

Help for SEEK can be obtained by typing "SEEK /H".

If you like SEEK, I request a minimal "donation" of $10.00 so that
further development on other programs (as well as SEEK) can be
done.  You may register through CompuServe by executing GO SWREG (#3473)
or you may send your name, date you received this copy of SEEK, and 
your payment, along with a S.A.S.E. to:

                   David S. Rothenberg
                   12093 Royal Palm Blvd.
                   Coral Springs, FL  33065

Using the S.A.S.E., I will return your registration information and
instructions on placement in the SEEK.REG.

You may also contact me via CompuServe @ 73514,231.  I accept 
comments and suggestions for enhancements, modifications, or
new programs.

SEEK is a *shareware* program.  It may be distributed freely as long
as all three files in the ZIP file (SEEK.EXE, SEEK.REG, and this
README.TXT) are included.
