OK, and my main area of concern will be the output filename, and adding HTML output. This will involve adding at least one new subroutine. We have &printtext for the text output. I'll be using &printhtml for the new subroutine. We'll need a command line parameter to specify what output. Another concern is what if someone wants multiple forms of output? I'm thinking the newmsg (I'll be changing this too :) ) routine could call each version of output. We also should have the option (command line parameter) of NOT deleting the input files. This will be useful for testing, but someone may also want to do this in a production environment. I'm probably missing something here, but that's what I'm thinking right now.
