Subject: Add another BSEARCH function that lets you search through an array of objects.
X-Git-Url: https://git.dogcows.com/gitweb?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7d32190a4cce0a579e187998ec5f834a3b8932e5;p=chaz%2Fopenbox

Add another BSEARCH function that lets you search through an array of objects.

If you give it a value x, the macro lets you pull a value out of each object
that you want to compare to x.
