It works very well:

	\ifpdf
	   \immediate\write16{\jobname: Bonjour, PDF!}			%%%%
	   \usepackage{cmap}
	   \usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}
	   \DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.png,.gif,.tif,.jpeg}
	   \usepackage[activate={true,nocompatibility}]{microtype}
	\else		% for non-pdfTeX
	   \immediate\write16{¡Hola \jobname: DVI!}			%%%%
	%   \DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.eps,.ps}
	   \usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}
	   \usepackage[protrusion=true,expansion=false]{microtype}
	\fi
	
	\immediate\write16{voranlen  ist \the\voranlen}
	\immediate\write16{zurucklen ist \the\zurucklen}
	
	\newwrite\foo
	\immediate\openout\foo=\jobname.sizes
	\immediate\write\foo{\the\latexitdepth (Depth)}
	\immediate\write\foo{\the\latexitheight (Height)}
	\immediate\write\foo{\the\latexitheight (TotalHeight)}
	\immediate\write\foo{\the\fboxsep (fboxsep)}
	\immediate\write\foo{\the\fboxrule (fboxrule)}

Every text in any TeX file stands in some context. The header of a  
paragraph might be the argument of a \section{} call. So find the  
header file that #defines \section{}. In TeX speak it's a CLS or  
class file (formerly also known as a STY or style file). When you're  
not using some extra class the \section{} call is defined in  
article.cls, book.cls, and report.cls. The last two also define  
\chapter{}, because an article never has chapters. All three have the  
\paragraph{} call defined.

No, it's sufficient to check the LOG file. Often it's enough to read  
what "packages" (STY or CLS files) are used by your source file via  
\usepackage{}.

Yes, 10,000 or more. As in C, Fortran, Perl ...

LOG file(s). An important one is the <format>.log file: it names all  
STY, CLS, and other files that were used to create the xetex or  
xelatex FMT files. This is the "standard library" used.
