Greetings!

I don't immediately know of one, but if you can use perl somewhere (or
bug someone who can -- cough cough), you can likely use genord.pl from
http://www.panix.com/~tmcd/.

It's a useful little script written by our own Daniel de Lincolia that
takes the OandA datafile and outputs a huge number of HTML files, to
mostly match what the online Ordinary looks like.  Any computer that can
use a web browser can then poke around easily enough.  No searches, but
a heck of a lot better than trudging through the paper version, to me.

If I get my act together in time, I'll likely have it on my laptop at
Coronation, too. :)
