Excellent! Do you have a website you could post these to? If so, put them
there and share the link. If not, email me off list and we'll arrange to
get them to me so I can share them on our files archive at ibiblio.
I like the very permissive license, especially for a library. For those who
don't know this license, it's this:
Copyright (c) ___________
Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification,

I'll be curious to see the command line parser. Did you write something
like getopt, or something new? FYI that there's a getopt here:

Also FYI that our Unix workalikes are here:

Thanks!
