Fuzzy searching of FITS header [message #74129]

Hi all,

Does anyone have a routine that allows for fuzzy searching of FITS
header keywords? For example, I have a header where I want the value
of the following keywords:

D001DEXP
D002DEXP
...

I don't know a priori how many of them there are, and it would be nice
to be able to have a parsing program that would let me give 'DEXP' as
a search string and return all of them. Any suggestions? I know I
could construct something that did searches for up to 1000 keywords
(000-999) and aborted when it didn't find anything, but that would
defeat the purpose of IDL vectorization, wouldn't it?
