    I've been planning it for many years now, and have started several times. I just don't know if I'll find the time to ever land it. RSN...

    Here's an idea - quit worrying about the effin Nodelist. Voila! Plenty
    of time to finish a simple project like that.

    You're welcome.

    That shows your competence level. Searching 2500 files via a web or other GUI interface is not as easy, as someone who knows nothing about programming may think.

    How would you know anything about what I know about programming?
    Seriously, how?

    Here's a free clue: Whether it's done from a GUI or not makes
    absolutely no difference in the difficulty level.

    You're right. That is a job for a stable genius, such as Donald Trump.
