How could I search a directory of .sch schematic sheets for components 
that contain a specific attribute, e.g. OrderCode=1234567, please? 
Basically, I need to fit components manually to a board, one specific 
type at a time, to keep production neat. So I need to list them by 
unique order code, ideally.

The search function would have to know how to navigate to and fro within 
each component's curly brackets in the .sch file, to find which 
component that attribute value belongs to. So I guess a perl script 
might already exist for this?

Gattrib doesn't let me sort by column, which would have been useful for 
this. Maybe there's an obvious and easier way to do what I'm trying to do...

Many thanks,

Matt.
