	However, the VMS box does have a way to specify a recursive
form of glob so that ...

search [.src...]*.c;* somestring

	would perform what most have been talking about.  The three
dots in the brackets (which specify directory) specify a recursive
form of globbing.

	That said, I'm not proud that I know this... more of a war
wound.
