    ietf rfcextra 3456: open RFC 3456 and any RFCs that update or
      obsolete it in $EDITOR, and any errata on any of those in a browser

      IETF Tools or IETF Datatracker web interface

    ietf draft crocker: open all active drafts with "crocker" in their
      filename, and lists all matching drafts that are expired, replaced
      by other drafts, or have become RFCs
