I used BBEdit to replace each instance of $search? with ?command=search, and repeated for each command. However, if you are versed in grep, you could probably tell BBEdit to change all the commands at once. Perhaps others on the list might be able to help with that. Otherwise, you could do it the same way I did, which was simply to grab a WebCat manual, write down each possible command, and do a serverwide replace on each command manually.
