Re: coding for standard in

I was looking in to this area too - it's still on my todo list - if  

you get anywhere please let me know I'll be interested on how to do  

this myself.

Okay, I'm not sure if this is really the proper way of doing this, but it seems to work...

int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {

    NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

NSLog(@"----->  %s",argv[1]);

NSString *script = [NSString stringWithCString: argv[1]];

NSFileHandle  *fh = [[NSFileHandle alloc] init];

fh = [NSFileHandle fileHandleForReadingAtPath: script];

NSData *inData = [[NSData alloc] init];

inData = [fh readDataToEndOfFile];

NSString *myString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData: inData encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding];

NSLog(@"\n%@\n", myString);

    [pool release];

    return 0;

}

this will allow you to create a script with your tool as the executable on the shebang line and then it will read in that script which you'll then have to parse.
