SUMMARY

VSRCH searches through the current directory for all variables that match 
the input search string.  It is considered to be a match if all or part of the 
variable name contains the search string.  For example, if "EQ" is input as the 
search string, all variables that contain "EQ" in their name are returned.

VSRCH can be used to select variables that contain specific classes of data.  
For example, if you want to keep track of all variables that contain electrical 
engineering equations, you can appended ".EE" to their names.  Then, 
entering ".EE" VSRCH will return a list of all electrical engineering 
equations in the current directory.  This type of naming convention is used 
in the built-in equation catalog.  The equation catalog displays all variables 
that contain equations or have "EQ" in their name.



Input                   Output

String   -->    { List of global names }
