I have written a script (perl Tk) which doesn't fit into the current
script categories.
It's called mkFilter.pl a script with GUI for testing perl regular
expressions, filtering input data (text) and generating template
scripts. The script doesn't fit into any existing category.
My suggestion for a new category is Text::Filter.
I got one reply from the list:

But I think the script categories are organized by funktion not by libraries.
Another suggestion could be devel (for developing like the module category).
Any comments?

Let's get back on the right foot here.
I'm the guy who creates categories. I watch for script authors to make
proposals, then I wait for discussion.Lately, the members of the scripts list don't seem to be long on
discussion. Thus, I'm declaring an amnesty period.If you've proposed a script category, please do so again. Say what
it does, what the new category is, and why it doesn't belong in an
existing category (if there's an existing category that's reasonably
applicable). Barring violent opposition, I'll create the category for
you right away.Cheers,
Kurt
