Hi Ashley,
I've applied your btool null parser patch to the latest CVS, so your
perlbarry package doesn't need a special patch anymore.
I've also added your perlbarry package under contrib/perlbarry.
I'm working through testing the scripts, and so far found just a few
small issues:
- if two devices are plugged in at once, the scripts get
confused... this isn't too big a deal, but would be nice
to have handled better
- some of the scripts embed binary ASCII characters in the
sources... this confuses tools like diff, making it think
the files are binary... could those characters be substituted
for escaped codes?
- when running the barrybkup script, some database directories
end up empty, and tar gives a blast of errors in those cases
Also, in testing your btool null parser patch, I found a bug in the
null parser itself, which caused the record unique IDs to be incorrect.
I fixed this as well.
Thanks very much for your scripts and for making them available to be
added to Barry. I'm quite pleased to see the IPD file format in perl
script form.
- Chris
