To OP: You might be better off writing your own parser to do this, assuming
you handle small chunks of text. This needs a special-purpose type of index.
Even search engines that operate on databases of computer code will be
unable to achieve anything as such.
I was going to suggest an acronym finder, but then realised it would not have

am just very curious...
