[--forwarded message--] From: madler@Hamlet.Caltech.Edu (Mark Adler) I have uploaded XF.ARC to SIMTEL20. It contains XF.C (in Turbo C and assembler) and XF.COM. It searches for a byte pattern specified in hexadecimal in the files requested. It will search files in sub- directories recursively. The actual searching is done in assembler to utilize the processor's string search instructions. Description: <msdos.filutl> XF.ARC Find hexadecimal pattern in file tree fast Mark Adler --- Thanks, Mark! I appreciate your policy of including source code. It's a great learning tool. This utility will be good for searching for viruses with known patterns. --Keith
