IbycusAuthTab is the interface to the AUTHTAB.DIR file which lists the contents of each PHI/TLG disk. Each AUTHTAB.DIR contains one or more "corpora", each of which contains one or more authors, and has a "tag" and a name. For instance, the PHI disk contains three corpora:
| Tag | Name |
| LAT | Latin Texts |
| CIV | Miscellaneous Works |
| COP | Coptic Texts |
Each author has an ID, a name, and may have "aliases" (e.g., Marcus Tullius Cicero, has the aliases "Cicero" and "Tully", Publius Vergilius Maro the aliases "Vergil" and "Virgil"). The author's ID can be used to open up that author's .IDT and .TXT files.

Given a directory and a string, this program searches the AUTHTAB.DIR file for the string in authors names and prints out the result along with some statistics about AUTHTAB.DIR
