Great.

I have some code here that I would like to see in GCC, it allows the
reading of command line arguments from a file, there was a discussion
about this, inspired by me, a while back. I had posted this before but I
think it got lost in the certainly more important GCC-3.0 work. This is
a proposal and I am not sure where and how it should be integrated in
GCC but am willing to do the work if I can get some pointers and help on
where and how.

Mark I know you'll have your hands full the next few days but I would
certainly appreciate if you could keep this in mind for GCC-3.01 or
GCC-3.1

Thanks,
Robert

To use the example:

- compile parser.c (gcc -o parse parser.c)
- run it (parse -I. -L/usr -@myCmdFile.txt -o cute)
