I should have noticed that 'reply' went to Luke and not the list.

My reasoning was that if you want to find out what a function does
without doing a text search it may be your only option. It isn't
always clear what section you would find it in from the name
alone. 

But what really induced me to add it was when an upgrade of xpdf at
work broke its text search capability and all I had on that machine
was slime.pdf.  ;-)

If no one else thinks it could be useful, I'll take it out.
