fastFind 1.0.0 Release Notes

WHY
===
A very,very fast way to do a search on a very large file. Achieved by 
presorting the file and making the length of each field the same. You 
can then use the awesomely quick sysseek and sysread Perl functions.

INSTALLATION
============
ï Install MacPerl 5.1.4r4 or greater.(Thanx Matthias) And add Chris 
Nandors Sort Perl Module on the Mac, or, use Alpha or Word to sort the 
Index file.

USAGE
=====
1) Drop a file with the structure :-
  1. Name
  2. Address
  3. Suburb
  4. Postal Code
  5. Phone number
delimited by pipe "|" onto 'generateIndex Droplet' (e.g. generateIndex 
Input).

2) Open and run fastFind.pl then maybe use it as a require in an 
application or cgi.

CHANGES
=======
V1.0.0
