Digital Distortion File Lister version 2.02: Added the ability to do

a file search (via filespec, description, or new files since last scan).
A command-line parameter, -MODE, specifies which search to perform
(search_filename, search_description, or new_file_search for searching;
list_curdir lists files in the user's current directory, which is the
default).
