No but you can output a list of all symbols and then use grep to do it...

grep ~x input.file > output.file

You can get grep and ton of other cool unix tools from GNU Win32 collection at cygnus.com Completely free and a great set of programming tools: perl,sed,awk,bash, flex, bison, grep, uniq, wc and more. Includes source and binaries. Source must be included in distribution but you can delete it after installation....

~x is called a regular expression which is an extrmemely powerful way to perform pattern matching and parsing. it may be daunting at first but once you learn it the possibilities are endless and very applicable to the manipulation of any kind of text file.
