| I want to find all the changes whose description text match a 
| given pattern.  How can I do that?
| 
| The best I've come up with so far is to run "p4 changes -l" 
| into a file and write a little Python script which post 
| processes the output. That's not too difficult, there's got 
| to be a better way, no?
