That's why I have added the demo program - even thru they are so specialized that they are only usefull for me. Currently I am in the process of cleaning them up generalizing the commandline parser so more work is done in the library and less work is needed for the scripts. Also the most important part is not finished: Execution of external programs. While I can execute programms (only with the CVS version) I want to be able to write the standart input and read the standart output of them. It is tricky since C function 'pipe' can only do one of the two. The part which works well are the text file filter. They convert, fix, change source files for me every day. They where the reason for starting the project: I found sed just to cryptic. > Perhaps there is, but I didn't find it at the sourceforge page. Try http://adacl.sourceforge.net/html/index.htm for a start. The sarIPFFiles.adb is a nice but complex example. Back to the manual part: Yes they would be nice - if I had a bit more time.
