I keep my prototypes in a separate source file called QPROTOSRC (credit to David Morris). A quick scan through the members with PDM shows the brief (member) text. I don't have a utility to index all the comments within the prototypes, but it shouldn't be too difficult to do.

Write an RPG program that is overridden at run time to MBR(*ALL), declare QPROTOSRC on an F spec, use INFDS to find the member (below is an insanely old example:

FQRPGSRC IP  E                    DISK
F            QRPGSRC                           KRENAMEQRPGSRCR
F                                              KINFDS INFDS
FQSYSPRT O   F     132     OF     PRINTER
IINFDS       DS
I                                       83  92 FILE
I                                       93 102 LIB
I                                      129 138 MBR

Then parse out the comments how ever you chose to put them in. Pick them apart word by word and add them to an indexed file with your keyword and member name. Then a simple inquiry will let you search the keywords and return the member name containing them.
