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.
