The best way I know of is to install the Info version of the FAQ
(djgppfaq.info from v2/faq211b.zip) and use the index-search command of
the Info browser. Type "info faq" from the DOS prompt. Once you are
inside Info, press `i' and type the subject you are looking for. (Info
has the completion feature, so you can type just part of the subject and
press TAB to have it pop a list of possible completions.) When you press
[Enter], Info will show the first place whose index includes the string
you typed. Thereafter, pressing a comma `,' repeatedly will show the
other places.
