BSEEK-COMP Defered word that holds the action to perform on
each slice to act as a comparison.

SET-BSEEK Easy way to set bseek-comp.
Syntax: SET-BSEEK {word}

BSEEK-SLICE Performs a binary seek of the slices starting
with hi-slice# and ending with lo-slice# (unless a
match is found) performing bseek-comp on each slice
to determine if match has been made.

BSEEK-SLICE-ALL Seeks a slice from all the used slices. Binary search.

LSEEK-COMP Defered word that holds the action to perform on
each slice to act as a comparison.
SET-LSEEK Easy way to set lseek-comp.
Syntax: SET-LSEEK {word}

LSEE-SLICE Performs a linear seek of the slices starting
with hi-slice# and ending with lo-slice# (unless a
match is found) performing lseek-comp on each slice
to determine if match has been made.

LSEEK-SLICE-ALL Linear search on all slices.

S.S.$AL Holds the aL of the string to compare each slice with.
S.S.CNT Bytes to compare.
S.S.OFF Offset in slice of field to compare.

BSEEK-COMP$ Performs a string compare on the current slice.
Compares with the values stored in the above variables.

SET-BSEEK-COMP$ Sets variables for BSEEK-COMP$.

BSEEK-COMP# Performs a numeric compare on the current slice.
Compares with the values stored in the above variables.

SET-BSEEK-COMP# Sets variables for numeric compare.

BSEEK-COMPD# } double number comparisons
SET-BSEEK-COMPD# } like single number above

L.S.$AL Holds the aL of the string to compare each slice with.
L.S.CNT Bytes to compare.
L.S.OFF Offset in slice of field to compare.


LSEEK-COMP$ Performs a string compare on the current slice.
SET-LSEEK-COMP$ Sets variables for LSEEK-COMP$.

LSEEK-COMP# Performs a numeric compare on the current slice.
SET-LSEEK-COMP# Sets variables for LSEEK-COMP#.

LSEEK-COMPD# } double number comparisons
SET-LSEEK-COMPD# } like single number above

SET-SORT-TO: Takes a string of
STRUCT->AL I can't remember.
SORT.BSEEK.COMP Performs the comparison for each slice when doing
a sort.
SORT.SLICES Internal sort word. Assumes slices left justified.
SORT-SLICES User sort word. Sorts the slices based on the
criteria set by SET-SORT-TO:.
