[Ftnpl-develop] pkt2txt: working dir changes

[Robert J. C. <rj...@ho...>]

Russ,

   I've added some files, as follows:

README    -  A readme file giving a brief description of what the script
does, & lists what the files
                     in the directory are for.

file_id.diz     -   standard file_id.diz file (I hope...<g>) describeing
this script

pk2txt.sh     -   an example shell script for running pkt2txt.pl.    Not
real important  now, but it will be
                      when there are more parameters...


   I also updated the TODO list.   What I'm going to be working on is adding
some parameters & cleaning up the logging subroutine (likely including a
name change for the subroutine).   I'll be doing this, btw, by using doing a
branch to work on the changes & then merge the changes back in once they're
working;   the kind of changes I'm going to do perhaps does not neccessitate
an actual branch, but OTOH I need practice on how to do branching &
merging...<g>

   I'm going to add three command line parameters;   one for defineing the
logfile, one for defineing the "$INDIR" parameter, & one for defineing the
"$OUTDIR" variable.   Once I have the logfile defined by a command line
parameter or by default, I'll clean up the logging subroutine as neccessary.
And I'll be changeing the example shell script as neccessary as I go
along...

   Once that's all done, I'll see about merging it back in to the main
branch...   I'll mostly be working only on the commandline subroutine & what
is currently called the logmsg subroutine, so it should merge back in with
no real problems;  assuming I do it right, at least...<g>
