                               FF (File Find) 
 

Description:   Searches either all drives or selected drives and finds and
               displays all files and directories whose names match the
               (filespec) you specify. 
 
Syntax:        Version 3.0:   FF [(drive:)...] [(filespec)] [/P] [/W] 
 
               Version 3.1, 4.0, 4.5:   FF [(drive:)][(filespec)]
                                        [(drive:)]...] [/A] [/P] [/W] 
 
                                 Parameters:
 
(drive:)       The single-letter specifier (A:, B:, C:, etc.) for the drive
               or drives you want to search. Follow each letter with a colon.
               The current drive is the default. 
 
(filespec)     The name of the file for which you want to search. If you do
               not specify (filespec), FF lists all files and directories on
               the specified drive or drives; the default is *.*. If you
               specify one or more (drive:) values after (filespec), FF also
               searches those drives for (filespec). 
 


/A             Searches all drives. If a drive can't be accessed, FF skips it
               and does not display an error message. 
 
/P             Displays the results in pause mode: You initially see one
               screenful of information, and you must press a key to see each
               subsequent screenful. 
 
Versions 3.0 and 3.1:    Press any key to see the next screenful. Press the
                         Pause key to pause at any time. You cannot activate
                         pause mode after FF begins executing. Use Ctrl-C
                         (^C) or Ctrl-Break (^[) to stop execution. 
 
Versions 4.0 and 4.5:    Press the Spacebar to see the next screenful. Press
                         the Enter key to scroll up one line at a time. Press
                         any key other than Spacebar, Enter, or Escape to
                         exit pause mode. You can also enter pause mode
                         during normal display by pressing any key other than
                         Escape. Use the Escape (ESC) key to stop execution. 
 
/W             Lists the files and directories in wide format (five files per
               line). 
 









Example:       To search all drives and display all EXE files that begin with
               the letters PRI.

               Enter:    FF pri.exe /A
