Lots of questions

First of all, I'd like to apologize for not using search on many of these; however, it seems that every time I use the search function, it gets overloaded.

I'm working on a conversion of IPB 2.1 to SMF 1.1 RC2, and I'd like to make some modifications--many modifications. I'm sure some of these are simple, and some of them more difficult, but I figure I'd try.

* It would be nice if there was a button/link at the bottom of a topic page that a user could click on and return to the list of topics within the forum.  I presume this involves modifying the footer of a particular Theme, but I'm unsure as to where to look, or how I would go about coding such a feature.  Any ideas or links to information?

* I want to modify the Next/Prev links to read "Next Topic/Previous Topic".  I'm sure that's fairly simple, but once again I'm not sure where to look. 

* Is there a mod to do a quick search within a specific forum?  If not, can anyone point me towards documentation that would allow me to create one?

* I'd like to have the "New Topic", "New Poll" and "Notify" buttons appear within a topic.  Is this something simple, or does it require greater modification?

Thanks for any help with this.  Once again, I do apologize for not being more thorough with searching, as I'm sure many of these questions are answered somewhere in these fora.

* Just copy the link tree in the Display.template.php thats above to below.
There is already a link to go to the board index. So you'll just copy it to under the topics in that file. (Just like in this site.)
* Go into  index.english.php to change those.
* You dont need a mod. Click onto advanced search, and select which boards you want to search in.
* Its as easy as copying some code from somewhere to some otherwhere.
Open MessageIndex.template.php and copy the relevant button codes, paste them into Display.template.php where the other buttons are.

Thanks.  I just needed to know where to look.
