Program description:

This PM version of grep is designed as a user friendly application. The
often cryptic command line options have been replaced with easy to use menu
selections.  The output of the search is sent to a PM window and the user
has easy access to all of the information that was found by the program. To
reduce the overhead, the results are buffered until the search is completed
and then displayed in the PM window.

New in DH-Grep-PM Version 1.03

Fixed problem with the Copy function that caused the program to abort when
the user tried to copy more than 64KB to the clipboard.

Added an accelerator key combination (Alt+Z) to open the Search Parameter
dialog.

Increased the amount of data that could be posted to the results window.
Testing indicates that the size of the results can now be least one
megabyte.  The results window is an MultiLine Editor window and it appears
to have a problem handling large amounts of data.  I have been able to
display a results file that was over 3 megabytes, but the failure point may
be configuration dependant. The MultiLine Editor is part of the IBM Open
Class Library.
