Argus 2.0 wishes

[Carter Bullard]

Hey Neil,
   Hmmmm, well now that I think about it, that isn't quite
right.  The way we get Argus format to stdout is to use the '-w -' option.
Without it, argus will print ASCII to stdout.  How about the '-E filename'
option for " Exception output to filename".  This is independant of how ra()
outputs data to stdout.  Then if you want Argus native output for
the match on stdout or a file, you use the -w option.

Hi
 
Yes that would be fine - so long as the stdout piped data is in an argus
data file format. Peter's suggestion is ok for some cases but I like reduce
and then re-combine files for rasort, etc and working with perl and text
files is not really efficient given the tools for argus.

Hey Neil, 
   Hmmm, if you can have the output of the filter 
go to a file and the non-matched records go to stdout, 
that could solve your problem.  That would be consistent 
with other Unix programs that have had to address this 
type of issue. 

   Would this work?
