Searching
Attributes may be attached to special entries called directories. Directories enable searching for objects by their associated attributes. Directories are a type of context; they restrict the name space much like a directory structure on a file system does.

Famous quotes containing the word searching:
“This searching and doubting and vacillating where nothing is clear but the arrogance of quest. I, too, had such noble ideas when I was still a boy.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“I have been searching history to see if really a woman has any precedent to claim the right to have her rights, and I am compelled to say that we men are not so much ahead of women after all, and the only way we have kept our reputation up is by keeping her down—and don’t you forget it!”
—George E. Foster, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. The Woman’s Magazine, pp. 38-41 (October 1886)
“And I cannot find the place
Where his paw is the snare!
Little One! Oh, Little One!
I am searching everywhere!”
—James Kenneth Stephens (1882–1950)
