Hello all,

Does anyone remember the name of a utility that can search a floppy
for a sequence of bytes?

Not necessarily a sector or address prologue/epilogue, but user
specified.

I'm pretty sure that the CIA Utilities do, and I think that
Locksmith does too.

Copy II Plus also provides disk "scan" capability under
Copy/5.25" disk/(S)can.

This is a pretty common capability for low-level disk utilities.
