[Qgis-user] QGIS "Near"

[whollycow]

Is anyone aware of a function equivalent to "Near" in ArcGIS?
(see 
http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.3/index.cfm?TopicName=Near_(Analysis)
http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.3/index.cfm?TopicName=Near_(Analysis) 
for reference)

I have been searching all day and haven't come across anything quite like
it.  It seems like such basic functionality I would be surprised if someone
hasn't already coded a solution.
