Hi Hans,

Would that one place be a web appl where the requirement is to parse form
posted StdIn variables and copy them to an array of data pointers that
represent variables of various types in the html page processing program?
Possibly two arrays are passed to a common procedure. The first is an array
of data pointers, the 2nd is an array of form field names that the stdin
stream is to be searched for.

If this scenario is not what you have in mind, do you consider it to have
merit?

thanks,

Steve Richter
