I was thinking about the ID=, Name=, and Alias= tags in column 9.
However, to be honest I'm not sure if/how you'd want to plumb those
tags into DAS queries/responses!

Just getting ahead of myself really!


Cheers,
Dan.

What you need to be able to do is index by location for fast random access, either with an index file or in memory. The parent/part stuff does add a layer of complexity. I had plans to write one some time ago but didn't work on it much.
