[fpc-pascal] Partial text search in a dictionary

[Torsten Bonde Christiansen]

Hi list.

I am looking for a class/list/map... that allows me to store string data 
paired with an object.

However i would like to be able to do a partial text search on the 
strings, prefeably with a result as a list of matching string/object 
pairs but getting an index to the first matching pair would be fine. The 
match only has to be done from the first character of both strings, so a 
complex solution like Regex search is not needed.

I know i can use a sorted TStringList with a straight forward search 
method, however I was hoping someone might know of an implementation 
that works more or less out of the box.

Kind regards
Torsten.
