I do not. I don't have the time right now, but looking up the name via Google
or similar engines might do the trick.

Efficiency does hardly matter nowadays. 1MB of nodelist used to be a huge
amount of data to search through on a 286 oder 386. But with the computers we
have today, a simple text-based search even on the raw nodelist would be fast
enough (actually the whole nodelist compiler-thing is somewhat obsolete now
imho).
