<p>I have just uploaded an updated <b>SPEC</b> stage. It will be
included in the next release of NetRexx. (The source is now
available from SourceForge, but since it uses advanced features it
can only be compiled by rebuilding the full NetRexx jars.
Doable.)<br>
</p>
<p>This fixes a known bug with X2C/C2X. (I had used the NetRexx
builtin, but it works with a singe character, not a string like
classic Rexx.) Also fixed, I hope, was the proper way to handle
multiple input streams.</p>
<p>The big addition is <b>FIELDS</b>, now in addition to characters
and words. And <b>WORDSEPARATOR</b> and <b>FIELDSEPARATOR</b>,
and their abbreviations. As an extension to the CMS separators,
which are limited to a single character, NetRexx Pipelines now
also supports multi-character separators. These are specified by
a "QWord." This is a simple single word, which is optionally
surrounded by quote marks, single or double. Quotes are necessary
if the "word" includes a SPACE, or begins with a quote mark.</p>
<p>These contrived examples are from <b>specs_tests_9.njp</b>: <br>
</p>
<font face="monospace">-- specs wordseparator multichar multiseps?<br>
literal @#one@#@#@#two@#@#three@#four |<br>
specs wordseparator @# w2 1 |<br>
cons</font><br>
<p>The output is <b>two</b>.</p>
<p>And</p>
<font face="monospace">-- specs multi fieldseparator multichar
multiseps?</font><br>
<font face="monospace"> literal $@#$one$@#@#@#two@#@#$three$@#four
|</font><br>
<font face="monospace"> specs fieldseparator @# f5 1
fieldseparator $ f5 nw |</font><br>
<font face="monospace"> cons <br>
</font>
<p>With output of <b>two three</b>.</p>

</p>
<p>And, NetRexx Pipelines has the two newish stages for rearranging
content: <b>PARSE</b> and <b>GREP / REGEX</b>.<br>
