hm, this is from memory, but here goes.

take option 2, and qxxxxx for the library.

then put a 25 in front of it.

key in what you're looking for, and any position limitations.

option 5 is for browse.  there is an option to find in batch, key a y there.

there are a couple of other options, to list the detail, etc.  you want a y to
print the list, but you don't need the detail unless you just want it.

the system will buzz you when it's done, and you will get a listing.
