Craig,


Approach David about enhancing the existing utility. If the parameter list can be made compatible, I'm fairly certain he will welcome the idea. If not, an additional routine could certainly be added to the Unix module. I've added several myself, that do nothing but redefine an existing interface to return a positive result on success. I use the toolkit in our production environment every day, and I'm currently working on a project that will need a wild card chkifs capability. Writing utilities is fun, but if I can avoid spending the time, it would be a big help. David's got some pretty nifty stuff in there. It's instructive just to look at the code. His parameter validation routines are great!
