Did you see my proposal from yesterday? It would only consist of three files (maybe four if a man page is created). The procedure would be a couple of simple install commands. No need for a Makefile or separate gawk files. The gawk scripts are embedded in the bash file. Sometimes it's easier to start over rather than fix an ancient, out-of-date procedures. What I did was one short bash script for both protocols and services, but that could be easily split into two: update-iana-services and update-iana-protocols. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
