	      Search Relative v0.01
	      =====================

What is this?
-------------

   This is a tool for searching files for text,
in particular, for text no using the ASCII system.
It is made for finding text in SNES roms, but may
be useful for other things. For info on SNES rom
hacking, read the De-Jap guide to translation on
my internet site...

How to use it
-------------

   Use the command:

SearchR <text> <file>

   Where text is a normal text sting to search for
and file is the file to search... As an example,
try searching my patched version of Dragon Quest 6e
for the string 'essage' this will find you the data
for the string 'Message speed?' in the rom.

eg. SearchR essage Dragon6e.smc

Note: This program will ONLY work if the characters
are stored in order (ie. 'a'=n+0, 'b'=n+1, 'c'=n+2
... 'z'=n+26, where n is some number). It works well
for either capital or lower-case letters, but not
both of them together! Thats why the example only
searches for 'essage' , not 'Message'. When you find
some results, try patching them using a hex editor...


What's New
----------

v0.01

- First Release
- Only good for lower or upper case search, not
  both together...
