  I am adding some bells and whistles to an old program I wrote in Borland
Turbo-C to keep track of my book collection.  One of these is a string search
that will find partial matches such as a key word in a title or series name. 
Could someone suggest where to find an algorithym or some source to look at
that conatains something similar.  I would greatly appreciate any and all
suggestions.
