Re: [cclib-devel] Web service available for testing

[Noel O'B. <bao...@gm...>]

I've done some more on this, it's now at
http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~noel/cclib/ccWeb.py with some discussion
on my blog at:
http://baoilleach.blogspot.com/2007/07/ccweb-lightweight-web-service-for.html

It would be nice to do a web page with a form where you can paste in
the contents of your log file, click SEND, and it will present the
results as a nicely formatted web page. It would also be useful for
asking Orca users, for example, to test out a parser that's in
development.
