Heh, seems so. But then it's very easy to do so with the INDEX file
already existing and being easily parseable, and writing such a tool is
a fun (and rewarding) programming exercise.
I guess what's missing is an all-powerful search tool. I have some
ideas, maybe around christmas I find some time to write something.
