Unlike some of the other C compilers on the Mac, Mac C does not use a pseudo UNIX environment. This is fine with me most of the time, but occasionally I would like to run programs that take argc argv style arguments. To solve this problem I have written a program which provides a small subset of the shell's command line processing. It will redirect stdin and stdout, and do filename pattern matching. If you are interested in a copy send me some mail. If there is enough interest I will post the source. While I highly recommend Mac C, those of you with other compilers should be able to use the program without too much conversion effort. -- Stephen J.
