Command Line Interpreters

1. (adacli.abs,221 KBytes) ADACLI - a collection of packages that implements an Ada-like command line interface. It is described in detail in the May-June 1990 issue of Ada Letters. [ES (DEC Ada/VMS)]

2. (cli_componts.abs,35 KBytes) The Command Language Interpreter (CLI) implements the tools found in chapters one and two of "Software Tools in Pascal" by Brian W. Kernighan and P.J. Plauger

3. (cli2.abs,47 KBytes) CLI2 is a general-purpose command line interface which is similar in concept to the UNIX ARGC/ARGV command line parameter passing mechanism. [ES (SUN 3/260 (SunOS 3.5), VADS 5.41; SUN 3/260 (SunOS 3.5), Alsys 3.2; VAX 11/785 (VMS 4.5), DEC Ada 1.3-24; MSDOS 3.3, IntegrAda 4.0.1; CAIS (DoD-STD-1838, 9 Oct 86); MSDOS 3.3, Meridian Ada 3.x)]

4. (cli.abs,96 KBytes) This package provides a universal and portable interface to the arguments typed on a command line when a program is invoked. [NR]

5. (sintf.abs,449 KBytes) This Standard-Interface-package is used to parse a line of arguments expressed in Ada and to create a paginated output file with a standardized header and/or footer.

6. (clp.abs,20 KBytes) Command_Line_Processor (CLP) provides a target-independent consistent command line interface which is based on the package CLI2. [ES (IBM PC (Meridian Ada); Sun (Verdix Ada); VAX (DEC Ada))]

7. (lparse.abs,17 KBytes) LINE_PARSER is a package which parses strings, returning tokens from them in a manner similar to ARGC/ARGV under UNIX. [ES (SUN 3/260 with Verdix VADS 5.41 and 5.5i)]

8. (parser.abs,14 KBytes) PARSER is a generic parser that functions in a manner similar to the ARGC/ARGV parser of UNIX. It contains one procedure, PARSE, which accepts a string as input and returns ARGC, a count of the number of tokens in the string, and ARGV, a vector of strings, each string containing a token. [ES (DG MV10000 (ROLM ADE) and DEC VAX 11/785 (DEC Ada))]
