So the full command would look something like: 

	$MCR NCP SHOW KNOWN NODES TO FOOBAR 	$EDIT/TECO FOOBAR.LIST
	<FS($(<a>$FS)$</a>)$;> 	[...something to quit TECO goes here...]

How do I exit TECO? 

EX$$

Also, if you need to put this into a script to do repeated edits of this
nature, you can put the TECo commands into the logical TEC$INIT.   Getting
the ESCAPE into a logical string is left as an exercise for the original
poster. ;)


In the end I went with a Python script that build an HTML table, you can see it at http://rhesus.sampsa.com/cgi-bin/hecnetinfo/hecnetinfo.com

RHESUS is an dual processor Itanic so it runs Python quite snappily :)
