[Insight-users] bash script to search example files for terms

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Darren,

Thanks for the script.

It has now been committed to the CVS repository as

         Insight/Examples/SearchScript.sh

---

The second script,
are you suggesting it as a separate script ?
or as an improvement to the first one ?


    Please let us know,


          Thanks


                Luis
