On my to-do list for several years has been a J version of perl's pack() and unpack() functions. Essentially those functions define and use a small, concise, powerful language for describing and manipulating binary data. By "binary data" I mean common machine representations of integers, IEEE floats, null-terminated strings, and the like. Reading the URL you posted, it appears that the datastreams are binary in this sense, and pack() tools could provide the foundation for a J/opentick application. I'll see if I can motivate myself to write the tools this week. Don't hold your breath. -Dan ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
