This forum needs a Search-function!

[bubach]

It would be really nice to have a search function on this forum!
Chase? Can u fix it? Or else; show how the database is done so i can program a search function for you..

I second the motion. I don't know how hard it would be to set up, but it would be nice to be able to type in "floppy" or "GDT" or "A20" and see all the posts containing the words you entered.

yeah, it _really_ would...

Chase is in the process of developing a new forum, as I understand it.  He may've already implemented this functionality.  He's simply run into a snag... a rather large one, in fact; HD/file system corruption.

There's actually a message below asking if anyone has any knowledge of file recovery in ext2 file systems.  Hopefully someone can help out here.

Cheers,
Jeff
