I see you too have some of the ideas I have that have made = me write my parameter handler Orto, which will be a part of AdaCL. Like=20 your package, Orto looks up parameters by name rather than position, and = prints help texts. It also interprets the parameters as numbers,=20 booleans and so on. Its command line syntax is somewhat different from=20 yours. Orto isn't quite finished yet and the documentation is mostly missing,=20 but it's functional on Gnu-based systems. The code can be viewed at=20 http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/adacl/adacl/Include/ (the=20 adacl-command_line-orto* files). --=20 Bj=F6rn Persson PGP key A88682FD omb jor ers @sv ge. r o.b n.p son eri nu
