I still need to do some cleanups in the documentation. However, with one
*BIG* caveat, this should be read.
The *BIG* caveat is that I need some help looking over the ExternalParser
code. I switched it to using fork/exec to escape the whole question of
escaping shell metacharaters. On the other hand, it doesn't seem to be
returning output from the external parser...
Attached is a small program that should look similar to the current
ExternalParser code. For example:
gcc -o testfork testfork.c
./testfork echo foo
Output from child:
foo
I will try to take a look at this later tonight, but the more eyes, the
better.
Thanks very much, I apologize for the fairly broken snapshot--I'll take
another one mid-week as a prerelease version.
