- STDFILE is a module that can be linked with any Intuition based program
- to provide a standard file requestor. Documentation is provided in the
- source. It has the advantage over the usual requestors that it never hits
- the disk unless it's absolutely necessary, and it's possible to get to any
- file on any device using just the mouse. Strictly speaking, it's not a
- requestor... thus it requires less set-up on *your* part. Does anyone know
- why (other than efficiency, I guess) requestors don't normally get their
- own window?
-
- The module "PatMatch" is a fast pattern matching routine written
- by Jeff Lydiatt of Richmond, British Columbia. He didn't provide a more
- precise address than that, I'm sorry.

- There are no copyright notices in his code, so I presume it's public
- domain. Mine, of course, has the usual selfserving "freeware" notice.
- If you want to deviate from the rather loose restrictions I impose,
- please give me a call... I'm sure I can be talked out of them. If you
- think my code is totally gross and you can do better, be my guest. I
- do the same thing myself (frex, this code doesn't contain a single line
- of code from anyone else's file requestors).
