strstr function (among other things). The second program is a demo program that uses several of the string functions available in the UCR Standard Library's string package. The third program demonstrates how to use the 80x86 cmps instruction to compare the data in two files. These programs (find.asm, strdemo.asm, and fcmp.asm) are available on the companion CD-ROM.
; Find.asm
;
; This program opens a file specified on the command line and searches for
; a string (also specified on the command line).

; Program Usage:
;
; find "string" filename
