Tim Edwards a816da60f9 Updated the HTML command reference files to refer to magic version 8.3,
since all of the title images still had 8.2, and the title text still
said 7.3 or 7.4, having not been updated for a long time.

<H2>getnode</H2>
<HR>
Get node names of all selected paint
<HR>
<H3>Usage:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>getnode</B> [<I>option</I>] <BR><BR>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
where <I>option</I> may be one of the following:
<DL>
<DT> <B>abort</B> [<I>string</I>]
<DD> Stop the <B>getnode</B> search when the node name
<I>string</I> is encountered.
<DT> <B>alias</B> [<B>on</B>|<B>off</B>]
<DD> If <B>on</B>, reports all names found for the node. If
<B>off</B>, only the canonical name is returned.
<DT> <B>globals</B> [<B>on</B>|<B>off</B>]
<DD> If <B>on</B>, any global node name (names ending with "!")
will terminate the search, returning the global name.
If <B>off</B>, global names are treated like local
node names.
<DT> <B>fast</B>
<DD> Return the first name encountered, rather than finding
the canonical node name.
</DL>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Summary:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
The <B>getnode</B> command queries areas of selected paint for
netlist node names. The converse of this command is <B>goto</B>.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>getnode</B> is implemented as a built-in command in <B>magic</B>.
The node name search uses the same algorithm as the netlist
connectivity selection function, and for very large networks, can
be quite slow.
