				| With the shear # of ships in this PDF to go through, has anyone ever seen say an XL document based on it or some other program to where someone could say search it for all ships which have X for speed, or Y for hull, without having to scan through each and every ship manually? _________________

				| Also, I'd add era to the 'scanable' fields. 
 
 One of my biggest issues is looking at something and going 'oh, cool' but then seeing g it is from 150 years in the future of, or 1000 years before the era I prefer.

				| Using adobe, hit control+f to bring up the search field, then type in "Space: xyz" and you should be able to automatically jump to specific ships with specific speeds.  You can probably do the same for Era, although it may be tougher since most of the eras are done as lists and it may or may not turn up anything with the find option. _________________

				| I know you can search the PDF's but i was wondering if anyone out there knew of, or has gone through it and already did the work, so if say their Players want to search a ship with a say hyperdrive speed of x1/2, or space speed of 7+, they can easily scan to see what besides fighters would match. _________________

				| Gry iirc was the one who compiled all the ships from any source WEG had into one big ships PDF.  Even had D20-d6 conversions for the Vong ships in it. _________________
