--------> The Repy begins here:

The program FIND search for phrases in files. you can use it as follows:

        FING [/x] [/n] [/v] [/i] "string" [[c:] [Path] [File]]


        /x  /c  count lines whitch matches in a file)
        /n      view line number
        /v      view all lines whitch not matches
        /i      ignore capitalization
