Wow. I dont use WIZ anymore.
Reason: HPFS & looong filenames. :)

I like ranges (fortunately 4os2 have this),
but I think the utility have many clauses,
many options for to do a simple task.

Additional options for intentions of quick
(& powerful, therefore) search is good.

No one than I thought until now. :)
