Yeah, I was thinking of the FWD, but looking at complete log files I see that not every entry is forwarded to someone else. Unfortunately, the only constant between entries is that the next entry starts with the 4 digit time and position (which for this facility is always TMU). The only other constant is the keyword that starts the entry, such as WX: or METERING:. Even to colon isn't constant after the keyword.
I've asked the development team that works on the program to add keyword search to the reports we can generate from the command line, but even if they do it, it'll take over a year to get it in place. The government moves extremely slow when tinkering with stuff they consider "operational" to the National Airspace System, even when it doesn't have any effect on controlling aircraft!
Thanks again for the suggestions. I'll keep tinkering, but scripting isn't my strong point. I can program in Visual Basic, but that won't work on Linux

pod::index::entry
Pod::Index::Entry(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Pod::Index::Entry(3pm)
NAME
Pod::Index::Entry - Represents Pod search result
SYNOPSIS
use Pod::Index::Entry;
my $entry = Pod::Index::Entry->new(
keyword => 'constructors',
podname => 'perlobj',
line => 42,
filename => '/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/pod/perlobj.pod',
context => 'Using POD',
);
# trivial accessors
my $podname = $entry->podname;
my $filename = $entry->filename;
my $line = $entry->line;
my $context = $entry->context;
my $keyword = $entry->keyword;
# extract the POD for this entry
my $pod = $entry->pod;
DESCRIPTION
This class represents a POD index entry. An entry is defined by the podname/filename, line number, and context. The entry object also has
the ability to extract the POD "scope" from the filename.
METHODS
new
my $q = Pod::Index::Entry->new(%args);
Create a new search object. Possible arguments are:
podname
The name of the pod, such as .
filename
The filename for the pod, such as Data/Dumper.pm.
line
The line number where the scope of this entry begins.
context
The title of the section that contains this entry.
podname
filename
line
context
These are just simple accessors that return the value of these properties, as given to the constructor.
pod Extracts the POD for the scope of the entry from $self->filename, beginning at $self->line. For a definition of scope, see Pod::Index.
The POD extraction is delegated to the Pod::Index::Extract module.
