Using keywords

The keywords shown here can help you narrow the range of the search. If you do not use a keyword, SuperC finds the string wherever it exists, even if that happens to be in the middle of a word.

PREFIX

Shows the string is preceded by a non-alphanumeric character, such as a blank space. It cannot be used on the same line with SUFFIX or WORD. For example, you can specify this:

==> ELSE PREFIX
==> ELSE SUFFIX

but not this:

==> ELSE PREFIX SUFFIX

SUFFIX

Shows the string is followed by a non-alphanumeric character. It cannot be used on the same line with PREFIX or WORD. See the examples under PREFIX.

WORD

Shows the string is both preceded and followed by a non-alphanumeric character. It cannot be used on the same line as PREFIX or SUFFIX. See the examples under PREFIX.

C

Continuation. Shows continuation of the previous line. Continuation lines generate additional strings, all of which must be found in the same line of an input data set. Also, the C keyword can be entered on the same line as one of the other keywords, but if so must be the last keyword. The example shown here instructs SuperC to find ELSE and to also find IF, but only when IF is on the same line as ELSE.

==> ELSE WORD
==> IF WORD C
