+.SH NAME
+tab \- simple table lookup routines
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.L "#include <ast.h>"
+.sp
+.L "int tabindex(const void* tab, int size, const char* name);"
+.L "void* tablook(const void* tab, int size, const char* name);"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These routines do linear lookups in
+.I small
+tables (on the order of 32 elements).
+Each table element has a size of
+.L size
+bytes and the beginning of the element points to a name that is
+matched by the lookup routines.
+.PP
+.L tabindex
+returns the index of the table element in
+.L tab
+that matches
+.LR name .
+If there is no match then
+.L \-1
+is returned.
+.PP
+.L tablook
+returns a pointer to the table element in
+.L tab
+that matches
+.LR name .
+If there is no match then
+.L 0
+is returned.
