When trying to get information on textual ODPs at uncontrolled fields we still have to go to airnav and look it up. This can waste time if we need to know what a pilot is doing. If we are able to use an alias to automatically pull up the appropriate Terminal Procedure Publications (TPPs) we could eliminate the extra time required to look up these documents.
The two ways I have considered going about this is to:
Have a command that brings up the appropriate TPP for a singular airport
This provides an easy one command lookup that brings up the appropriate document for that one airport. If an airport is not in any documents you would already know right away.
Have a command that provides which area an airport is in and then another command to open up the area document.
Since you would already have to CTL+F in the document when it is pulled up, this gives controllers a way to find the area an airport is in if they do not know. However if a controller already knows which area an airport is in, they can immediately skip looking up where it is and go directly to the area's TPP. The downside is that you wouldn't immediately know if an airport is not listed.
For more information on TPPs and their categorization, you can find it here on the FAA website.

The .(FAA ID)TMC command does what you are talking about already, however we may create another command ".(FAA ID)ODPC" to do the same thing but more intuitive.
