If you know the journal, volume number, and page number of a paper published in any IOP journal, you can go directly there using this command.

Examples:
iop epl 25 415
(Europhysics Letters (epl) vol. 25 p. 415)
iop jphysd 41 134001
(J Phys D (jphysd) vol. 41 p. 134001)

This is useful because often, you'll want to check a reference at the end of a paper.  You don't need to search google scholar for author name, or paper title, and then scan the results.  You have the volume and page number -- just go directly to the paper!

The *best* way to use this command is in conjunction with a firefox Quick Search keyword, so you could just enter the following in the location bar:
iop prb 78 092401
and it would take you directly there!
