Sure, 8 characters instead of 12. The search for Schrpf would be
even faster, since this string has only 6 characters.
But why would anybody want to search for such arbitrary strings?
Why not search for "77 Sunset Strip" or "Pennsylvania 5000"? Why not
simply search for READ?
d> the former will more likely be referred to in PERFORM statements
What likelyhood? I also did not win in the lottery past saturday --
only a chance of 1 to 14 millions for 6 out of 49. You offer 8 out of
36, and with repetitions.
What do I miss to understand your enigmatic words?
